Speaking of capacitors, I just ran across some 200µf  and 400µf 200V AC capacitors (15 and 30 amp at 60 Hz respectively) I put them on ebay but if someone from the list can use them feel free to contact me

Regards, Bill

this brings up an interesting question, and I confess I'm too lazy tocheck the archives..

Normally folks use inductive ballasts to limit the current. But really,any low loss reactance will work to limit the current, so something likea big capacitor (such as Bill's) should work.


Has anyone tried it?
