10 Farad of electrolytic rated at 600V – Dave, are you kidding me?-
I mean I only saw caps in the range of Farad in homework questions. The last home brew crazy discrete class AB audio amp I built uses 2 10,000 micro Farad/100V electrolytics, I have enough trouble to find an enclosure for her.
The link below shows a 100 MILLI Farad rated only 10V. Look at the size. I’m not sure if you can fit your 10F/600V electrolytic in a shopping cart if that exists.
