They are stamped Nichicon 820uf @ 50 volts. You can see it in the picture there. There's another number on them, HO129 I couldn't find the spec sheets on them. I got them from a speed controller for a 36 volt forklift.
I considered using another Nichicon style that I have here. They are 1000uf @ 63 volts HO110 But in reading your discussions (many others were involvled too) about ESR values and Transient Response times. I opted for the 820's.
After a 10 minute test run, everything was cool. I could hardly tell the ESC had been ran and the motor was stone cold.
