I want to restuff a metal cap (non elec) it is a .50uf. The only cap I have close is a fat .47uf which will not fit inside the metal housing. Could I use two 1.0uf caps in series, or 2 .44uf caps in parallel? Im not sure what that does to the voltage value. The 1.0uf caps are only 400v, and the .22uf caps are 630v.
