They are not really for voltage drop, they are for power conditioning and noise/spikes absorption. They take a crap load of abuse, obviously, and more of them spreads the load between each of them. They also provide more of a pulse when switching.

We should figure a good value for the capacity and use that, too much capacity, to much arcing will occur when plugging in batts.

About 'no comment', all I said was the cap had blown, I looked in, saw it... I mentioned I had a plate adhered to the case. He just kept telling me to send it in and they would replace it, he obviously didn't care, then he was talking to some guy in Switzerland? Who could that be? :005:

But yah, I'm thinking either 4 220, or 330uF caps right in next to the Quark input. I'll let you know what I decide
