John, Mike,

Thanks.

Mike, I have yet to have any issues with hot glue on film capacitors...although perhaps I should be more careful and do as you suggest. I do know better than to get hot glue on electrolytics. Don't ask how I know. Icon_eek

The top of this assembly is a positive lead, as is the bottom - the middle is negative as the caps are connected in parallel to add up to 16.4 uF. A Solen 18 uF 630V cap is too large to fit in these aluminum can electrolytics. So I wanted to make sure the top lead did not make contact with the top of the aluminum can. The hot glue serves as an insulator (along with heat shrink tubing) to accomplish that.
