    Capacitor Bank Discharge

    The idea is to provide a 14 second supply of high voltage. If I understand it correctly, the three banks of capacitors will discharge one bank at a time as the previous one reaches a certain level of lower voltage. This would create a wave or pulse of high DC voltage that could by the number...

    Capacitor Bank Discharge

    The theory behind this schematic is three capacitor banks that each fire as the previous one’s power reaches a low point. The switch is manual and when thrown causes Capacitor Bank 1 to discharge. When Bank one reaches a predetermined low voltage (determined by the zener diode) Bank 2...

    Capacitor Question

    Thank you all for the great responses. I wonder if plumbers use electrical analogies for their projects? I would like to find a website that will teach me about capacitors, if anyone knows of any pleas let me know. –Jim Repass

    Capacitor Question

    I have a question about capacitors. I have read two different descriptions of how they work and wish to know which is correct. The first was an analogy to a water pipe supplying water to fill a container. The container will hold a supply of water and after the valve is shut off, the container...
