Electrolytic capacitors are the exception to the rule that says you can't go wrong by using a higher rating than specified for the circuit. By all means use a larger capacitor than 22,000 uF (the Rot

Thanks, Fred, it's all good info. The point on voltage rating is that the "burn-in" to ensure the electrolytic capacitor is fully reformed should be done at rated voltage, not just the circuit workin

Dear Thomas You are forgetting the action of the throttle, which is there to reduce the manifold pressure from ambient (or higher if you have a turbo-charged engine) to a working value for the power

Ferg, For a baggage compartment, I believe an end-grain balsa and fibre glass sandwich would give you the best properties. Balsa can be much less dense than plywood, so you can use a 1/4 inch layer t
