Oh Dear...

The Maxwell 37667 caps from ebay, there's absolutely nothing wrong with 
them. I knew a coiler friend of mine in Australia (A first time coiler, we 
started the hobby together) he was too lazy to build a MMC so he bought a 
maxwell from ebay. Poor a$$ took it up to something like 600bps with  an 
ARSG. It got really hot, around 120 degrees celcius, but didnt go bang yet.

The maxwells were designed for pulse duty, and as a result, I have decided 
to (sooner or later) purhcase one of them for myself.
