New capacitors, who dis?

Illustration for article titled New capacitors, who dis?

Put together a new capacitor for my bike today. I tried a “charging mod” on the old ones which caused the voltage to spike and wreck the old ones. I picked these guys up off Amazon for $2 a piece, so we’ll see how they hold up. Six 10k uF caps wired in parallel. I’m running LED bulbs in the front and back, so my load is pretty light. While trying to diagnose the charging issue with the old caps, I discovered my bike will start and idle off the generator alone. Pretty neat.
