 Proven,, on paper,, so has it been proven in the field?

Zeusmorg;

Pretty large distinction there. Still curious which it is. I often thought caps could be used to advantage in these applications but never had time or resources to do much real world testing.

Those down under folks get to play with FnP's a lot. I had one awhile, but in the interest of experimenting I swapped it to Jerry for some other stuff.

Anyway be curious to know if it was a test in hardware or on paper.

BruceDownunder talked about the Aussies playing with caps on those motors in IRC this weekend, and it sounded like they were working to boost output. Just hearsay.
