[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8283601, member: 655960"] There's no controversy to me and you're not stepping on any toes. You're perfectly free to post whatever you like (as far as I'm concerned) but when you do it without providing evidence, expect to be challenged. And to clarify, you sent me a link to an article that doesn't even list any empirical test data. I don't know about you but I'm not interested in reading people's opinions when it comes to science. If you'll notice, the videos I linked to are demonstrations with actual measurements, not speculative opinion pieces. And with a modicum of due diligence, one could also find videos demonstrating capacitors that [I]don't[/I] work. The trouble with those pieces and the article you linked is that they condemn [I]all[/I] capacitors as useless and that simply is not true. There are actually a good many people nowadays who have no batteries or only one battery and a bank of capacitors as their backup power and most of those people are in the lanes winning. And most of those caps have been in use for a good deal of time. In the end, it's accurate to make the claim that small electrolytic capacitors with cheap volt meters on top don't usually help and possibly even make things worse. But you didn't say that, nor did the articles you linked. [/QUOTE]
