Fuego's long gone, mate. This thread reminds me of Year 12 Physics lab hooking up big caps to the power supplies in reverse and watching them explode. :lol:

Better when it's done accidentally, bigger fright. Igniting the gas taps was better. Darn things were always active.

:crazy1: What a ripoff! 1/3 the capacitance - I'll be measuring all mine from now on! :head_knock:

Back in 'the good old days' :rolleyes: the large electrolytic caps in TV sets and radios used to explode quite regularly. When they did, they emitted a gas that smelt like a dead rat. So bad, you had to clear the room, really, really bad! ;) (Trumpism)

 True Story: In Auckland, I worked with a strange Dutch TV technician. He still wore his wooden clogs.

 One day, he was happily singing some ditty from the homeland, while standing on a chair with his head and shoulders buried in the back of a large TV cabinet.
Suddenly, there was an explosion equivalent to a shotgun going off.

Dutchman emerged , still singing, covered in fragments of stinking paper and acknowledging nobody else, he disappeared  out the service department door. That was the last time I saw him.

 I was told that he tried to catch a bus home but the large Maori driver convinced him to walk home, because anyone who smelt like a sewer was definitely going to end up in one.

Love that word (Trumpism)  :rofl: :rofl: (very much something he would say)

Those things must be either made of bakelite (as that's what the old bakelite "plastic" light fitting collars used to smell like if they got too hot) or Icecream. If your fridge ever dies while you are away on holidays hold your breath if the icecream in the freezer has gone "off"  :sicky: :crazy1:

Yep smelt bakelite too. These caps were in 100mm x 50mm aluminium cans. They went off with a MOAB , that's a mother of all bangs, really loud, big big bang. :mrgreen:
