To Tweaker; you are wrong below

Posted by Uncle Mike on May 21, 2017 at 16:29:55:
After reading Pixelphoto's story below I decided to answer you with a new post rather than hijack his thread.
The fact you suggest and offer the size cap you did tells me you know nothing of the purpose of a safety cap and EMI filtering. Off the top of my head without using any test equipment to measure I would say Pixel has a better shot at achieving results than you. BIGGER IS NOT BETTER WHEN FILTERING NOISE.
As far as his choice of brand cap I'd say he made an informed if misguided choice. I'd bet a .01mf ceramic cap used there would perform the same.
I've added a link, that can be opened in another window to appease VINNIE2, that you and others can take some time and try to understand that there is some science behind all this and not just smoke and mirrors.
Regards
Mike
