Re: MONSTER AEROVOX CAP

Dan -

esssurplus (a nice outfit btw, just a few miles from my qth) has some of the MKP1.44/3 120uf/750vdc versions of this monster cap on Ebay currently. I was turned onto these rather impressive caps by Topper.

On a Sencore LC53 cap meter they measure 124uf, and have absolutely no measureable leakage at 600vdc. ESR is also essentially 0 on my EA ESR meter. For comparison, a similar electrolytic 450v cap that was on my workbench has an ESR of .24 ohms

While I haven't put them to use yet, I can't imagine whey they wouldn't be a perfect power supply cap. The size may be an issue, ESR clearly isn't!
