Right, they do wrinkle up a bit, but it doesn't throw the capacitance
off much and each stack of 5-at-6.6 mill each, seem to wrinkle the same. so
it actually helped remove air in system?
The bucket caps  are the ones i use in most of my "new idea" testing
because i know how they act and they remain very stable.
At 99kv i can have a few oopsies and they keep on ticking?
Take care,
