Right!
KABOOM!!!
If you have never seen an electrolytic explode, you
are in for a real treat.
Just make sure to stand WAY back from the rig.
If it were mine (and I have one of these rigs) I'd
replace the caps by using 600 volt units underneath
the chassis. No need for fireworks (and if you don't
believe, it WILL make a believer outta ya).
