Things are picking up on the ultracapacitor front, i've been reading tons of stuff about them. very simple to make your own aswell.

have a look through this site :-

http://www.ultracapacitors.org/forum/56.html

I'll be testing a homemade one soon.

I made this HDCC about 8 years ago for my Flyback Trans and it really does step it up, that Flyback went from screaming high pitch arcs to very loud cracks, I had to use ear plugs to prevent hearing loss.

I'll have to make another one sometime. their very easy to make. and they work a lot better than the old Saltwater HAWG caps.

31F @ 3500V  = 189MJ, not bad from 330Lb, much better than a hompolar generator or compulsator for energy density, I wonder what the ESL and ESR are?  If they are less than 1 milli ohm it could have military applications not that we need more weapons on this planet. If electric motors were good enough it would leave a top fuel dragster way behind on the 1/4 mile.

 Until SiC semiconductors become mainstream the 3500V output is a problem, I could see super capacitors being very useful for a hybrid.

Carbon Aerogel Caps are top of the line for Top Fuel Electric Dragsters, super light weight and high density charge. nothing could touch it except a miniature nuclear reactor.

thats funny ... 

wate till you see the 814 ARC REACTOR ...  ill blow caps ...  like i blew fets... :)  i blew many fets till i did it right lol

w815  SH!FT !N
