Schematics and component values

[jeroddumas]

Okay, I will try the circuit with 470uf caps instead of the 1000uf. No other modifications of the circuit is needed correct?

Correct - but I would start with 100 or 220µF caps... [img]smile.gif[/img]

okay then that is where i will start.

Thanks

1000 at 450 is also Dangerous.

you could spot weld with that many coulombs!

that reminds me of a joke,

One day at college (yes, I did graduate from high school!)I asked my physics prof:

"If an ohm d some ganja, does that make him a "CoolOhm?"

pretty lame , ehh!

He didn't like it either.

does R suffix mean the same as plain ohms? such as 7R=7ohms?

Yes, R is just easier to type than the Omega symbol.

on windows it's alt+0181 for the µ.

[ssltech]

Alt+230 is easier for µ...
Alt+241 for ±
and Alt+234 for Ω.

Yes, but... Unlike µ the Omega symbol is not included in all character sets (it's not in the European 850 codepage I use). So although I can see the symbol you posted, I can't type it myself [img]smile.gif[/img] And if you use the Omega symbol from the "Symbol" font you can be in trouble as well, as there is more than one "Symbol" font - I think I have three different ones with different character sets on my system...
