OKR-T questions

Hey all
What are the best caps to use when building a vv mod with the OKR chip ?
Thanks!

I'd recommend 10uF Ceramic X7R 16V like these

Would these work the same?

I guess I'm just curious because some of the diagrams say 100uf by 10v and others 10uf by 16v???

Those work very well without caps

Ceramic will work better than the tantalum (Less ESR). 100uF tantalums would also work, but if you have a choice my experience is the best caps would be 10uF ceramic.

If your wires are short these devices do work very well without caps, but if the wires are long like some of the mods shown on here you would do better adding some and 10uF is a good value to use. The only way to say for certain is to look at it with a scope.
