    In answer to Hugh McKay's question about the working voltage of an electrolytic capacitor, I always want a safety margin on electolytics. I have had 100 V wkg electrolytics blow at 100 V, etc., particularly when they have been in use for a while. I always want a safety factor of 2 at least on electrolytic capacitors. I would never put a 12 V wkg electrolytic in a 12 V circuit. Can save you grief!
