Ron, that looks sooooo much better and should give your friend many years of trouble free service. I agree with Phlog that the Solen NP caps are the way to go on high current/voltage power supplies and use them. I learned my lesson on Scott 800Bs when standard e-caps would run fine for a few hours. Six or 8 hours and they blew. They just heated up. The Solen (4mfd.) in this case ran cool. I'm a believer in these caps. Yes Mike more expensive and larger.
Best Jerry
