content: Someone rated it one star? That wasn't me! Didn't mean to be hateful either. I was more... neutrally surprised that he hadn't seen them on here already.

content: Ha, yeah, I see your point. Most of them are relatively recent, but I see that you are tooYou might be able to delete it - I don't know, I've never tried - but honestly, just leave it. It'll fall off into the forgotten pages soon. I didn't mean to be critical, it's no big deal. Some people on some forums are downright hostile to people who make reposts - we're usually pretty good here.

content: first time I've seen it too. The cap exploding in his face was hilariously funny.. don't know if I'd have my face that close though.I've actually experience an exploding cap, when I was 16, I built a power supply, I didn't realize the voltage ratings should be doubled or tripled( trebled?) for a good safety factor. I had used caps that were exactly 25 volts for my 24 volt supply and probably the ripple current was too much when it got loaded down. It didn't explode right away, but took several days, and blew up when I was in the room but about 10ft away or so. The explosion scared the daylights out of me, and littered my bedroom with little tiny bits of paper... everywhere, that I was still picking up months later.
