ah Geez, you forgot already?! :005: You were even 'Franked' today on the phone! :005:

jhautz, yes, the white strip will be the negative lead.

A good idea of mine to mount up to 6 caps, is to tap the input leads with short run of wire, say 6cm, long enough to mount 6 caps down the length. I would strip slots in the wire insulation for each caps leads to penetrate the wire, and solder each cap into each slot in the wire. Or you could make the half the length and mount two caps per slot (one on each side). I would then shrink wrap those caps, or use the packing tape (the strong stuff with fibers in it) to secure them. You will want to mount these in a way that they WILL NOT bounce around or get physical abuse, indeed they can't handle that $HIT.

Let me know if you don't understand what I meant.
