Flux Capacitor ping!..........
Even better. These are the ones they use on the Ion Cannons on Imperial Cruisers. I’m talking about the big Correlian ones. Not the local bulk ones.
I remember thinking, in my first electronics class that the Farad was the most ridiculous unit of measurement I’d ever encountered. You never measured capacitors in farads, but in thousandths or millionths of a farad! (microfarads, milifards, picofarads...)
if i hook it to my flux capacitor will my car fly or explode?
And can a bank of these in the back of a pickup power a tactical anti-missile laser yet?
New batteries for hybrid cars? Military?
Now, if we could just get it to generate 1.21 jigawatts...
"Hey, it's that guy from CNN!"
(actually I'm still waiting for some bead condensers, model #: AB-619, and my intensifier disk is cracked)
You ought to look at Curies and Becquerels in the radiation field for nutso numbers.
Those suckers have “do not lick” written all over them.
Surprisingly, it usually works!
2K Farads...that’s one big freakin’ cap! I remember as an exercise in my 2nd semester of physics at Penn State the prof had us calculate the size of the two plates for a 1 farad parallel plate cap...if I remember correctly the two plates each were around the size of an acre! The biggest caps that I ever use in any of my designs never exceed 10uF.
A mechanical engineer buddy of mine refers to every electrical characteristic (amps, volts, power, amp-hours, etc.) as a kilowhickle. Kind of a universal electical rating, for ANYTHING with a piece of wire connected to it.
This sounds like rail gun territory.
Yowza, two kilofarads. But will it store flux?
Yes.
This is the US, speak English, dammit!
Will some electrical genius translate this into how big a car, how fast a car, how long it will go on a charge, how much it will cost, and what does it weigh, and how many do you need.
Next question, compare it to the energy densities of lead acid, and nicad batteries.
Last question, how exciting will it be if you get a short in the battery system
