RE: JOC, did you measure temp when you were running at 500VDC?

Steve
The Sencore is not going to heat the cap in the testing duration because it limits the current after the initial charge cycle and then the computer inside analyzes the cap's variables and or condition as that's all it needs.
I would have to put the cap in an enclosed area of an amplifier to where it can build up heat for that test.
Now,if you were to ask me, are these caps better than the CE Mallory type and my answer to that would be,I don't know. I do know the voltage rating is higher on the Authenticaps than the CE.
