Re: Bridge rectifier

         What's the capacitance and voltage on "big blue"? There's a

I believe it's 27,000uf at 15 volts. As you know larger voltages are OK
too... And I've had luck using higher uf in this application as well.
I have used 35,000uf at 40 volts with no problems at all. Anyone out
there have any thoughts on using larger caps in the main transformer??

In any event, some of the surplus supply houses have computer grade caps
in the $3 to $4 range, I suspect that is what Gregg was hoping for.

Thanks,
Noel
