Re: MMC Bulk Buy V.2.0

     You might want to consider the source I used when I did a group buy of 
     caps for MMC use.
     
     Seacor makes a line of PP/foil caps with characteristics suitable for 
     TC use.  I was able to purchase caps rated for 0.047uF, 1600VDC for 
     $0.79 each.  I received limited feedback from list members that these 
     caps worked well in their TCs.  My supply was damaged in a fire (not 
     related to TCs) and I was unable to try them myself :( 
     
     The major caveat with the Seacor buy was the MOQ (minimum order 
     quantity), which was around 1,000 pieces.

The MMC Bulk Buy is back!
However, ther have been some changes. We now have a different supplier, 
Illinois Capacitor. The caps are still .047uF at 1600vdc but the dv/dt is only 
2700. As long as you run these at a moderately low break rate, they should be 
just fine.  The new order deadline is Aug.16 and the capacitors will be
shipped 
within 1 to 2 weeks. Yeah! 
Rob and myself will be buying 170 and we'll need some more buyers to meet the 
250 cap minimum order for that supplier. C'mon everyone, help us out. The caps 
will only end up costing $1.15 each! Less, if we can get a larger order. 
Here's what I need from you:
1.Mailing Address
2.Telephone Number (optional)
3.Number of capacitors you want
4.Money Order of the amount of your caps plus 5 bucks for shipping and
handling 
(less if you have a tiny order)
Remember, you have until Aug 16 to order... Don't be late because we won't buy 
any extras.
     
Thanks everybody,
