If you’re looking to crush cans or quarters, vaporize a watermelon or do some other high energy discharge experiments you’ll need one or more good capacitors. I’m selling a few of mine down below. The output leads are tied together and they are sold with no charge in them. Anything beyond that is your responsibility.

I’m clearing out some large inventory to make space. The items I have available right now are listed below. Please use the contact button at the top of this page or use the comments section to contact me if interested and for photos (email addresses are not publicly shown when you leave a comment):

100uF/10kV Energy Storage Capacitors
QTY: 2
Description: Blue colored energy storage capacitors, labled Non-PCB. This pair was originally from a large Holobeam Nd:Glass laser and I just haven’t been getting the use I wanted out of them.
Capacitance: 100 uF
Voltage: 10,000 Volts
Energy: 5000 Joules / 1 Coulomb
Weight: Appx 150 Lbs
Selling to: I’d prefer to sell these in the NY, NJ, PA,VT, MA, CT area to a buyer who will pick up. If I do consider shipping (freight only) I definitely will only sell them to US residents with US addresses.
Asking price: $old each or $old for the pair

170uF/10kV Energy Storage Capacitor
Quantity: 1
Description: Aerovox white colored energy storage capacitor labeled Non-PCB. Originally part of a high-energy laser research program that was shut down.
Capacitance: 170uF
Voltage: 10,000 Volts
Energy: 7500 Joules / 1.7 Coulombs
Weight: 150-175 Lbs
Selling to: I’d prefer to sell these in the NY, NJ, PA,VT, MA, CT area to a buyer who will pick up. If I do consider shipping (freight only) I definitely will only sell them to US residents with US addresses.
