Hey Sci, you just added more holes to my plan I hadn't considered!
I got some caps to try, from a small town shop and you're gonna laugh-- a pair of 63v, which seem rather large to stuff in a mod and 25v just as they seemed more reasonable based on size. It's what the guy had. That and a pair of of 3a diodes, also monstrous, the leads alone are thick. My vague understanding is the big caps should be plenty, the little ones not so good. Should I even bother or hold out for the real deal? Luckily the bag with an additional 9 resistors came to about $1.15
