Re: Maxwell 37667 pulse caps

So you are saying even though Maxwell rates these caps at 500 PPS (pulses
per second), They are really one pulse per second caps? Does everyone agree?
Has those that have used these caps been disappointed. Would I be better off
listing them on ebay and selling to the next sucker before I destroy them?
