Restoring Philco 37-604C
#46

160uF, not 330uF. Anywho.

Well, the full energy of that cap was 9 joules.
Joule is a serious energy. 9 Joules over a second is 9W, and 9W could heat some measurable things to red-to-white hot state and some smoke.

BTW, James Joule was a brewer before he became a scientist; the science was a serious hobby of his, and the brewing was the profession, handed down from generations, which made his family rich. And it was brewing that lead him to science - measuring energy, temperatures and such.

And, to finalize, the capacitor is a magic thing. To charge capacitor to the energy level, say, E, the power supply needs to expend the energy of 2E. Hence the famous two-cap paradox. And the spark is that very result of it.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
