"It is important to consider that the larger the electrolytic value in microfarads, the larger hit your rectifier will take until the caps are fully charged. ONCE charged, however, no difference."

Actually, the rectifier will take a hit once every cycle. Think of it as butting your head against a wall 120 times a second. Would you rather the wall be padded or bare concrete?Icon_biggrin
