Hi Matt ...

there is a saying in mechanical engineering ....


Pick 2 of the 3 

Cheap , Fast , Quality. 

cuz the one you leave out wont be part of the description....


good large caps arent cheap ...
cheap large caps arent good...
good cheap caps arent large ...

expect to pay 150$+ for a decient set of caps for even a small pig setup ... 
Ive got over 350$ invested in real caps and Im not going to say how much I
wasted in homemade caps cuz if the wife finds out this will be my last message
to the tesla list...
