"Hi Mark,
I was confused about if it was micro or Milli when I first got it; in
response to this I asked the man on the first opportunity I got. He
stated
that it is 4 millifarad and added for further clarification " 3 decimal
points". I don't suppose any of you know a man with a last name of
Rutledge
- (name might be spelled wrong.)
   Cheers

	How big is the thing?  4 millifarad = 4000 microfarad.  A 4 microfarad
capacitor sounds reasonable, but 4 millifarads???  By the way, EE's are
not infallible.  Much of my career has been spent fixing up stuff
designed by guys who screwed up big time!
