Re: What to do with big capacitors?

I say save them, you never know when a sensible, safe use for them will come up.

To all of you suggesting stupid, dangerous stunts, shame on you. When dealing with high powered devices the last thing on your minds should be "What stunts can I pull with this?"

Show some respect for the amount of damage you can cause to yourself when you're fooling around with stuff, this might be a relatively small capacitor, compared to say a computer monitor, but it can still hurt someone.

I'll never understand what's amusing about hurting yourself.

I say save em for a project, I bet you can come up with something cool. (And safe!)
