Cap's inline on Ametek?

Hello all- HAPPY HOLIDAYS ALSO !!!
I'm still a newby so please bear with me, while doing research, (reading old posts here)!
I found this-
"Filter the outputs at the pole!! You will have higher output and less ripple and more consistant power. Causes less problems. That voltage seems great! Match the temprature as well. Caps run at different tempratures, find one that is sutible for the lowest temprature in winter conditions. The higher the farad randge on your cap the better. Also this will lessen the load on the generator durring high load conditions. Acts like a small battery that will feed a bigger one, but charges smaller one first before feeding big one, hence produces lesser load and higher consistant voltages."
So I should put a cap on each PM Gen to help it out ???
Motor Running Cap's ???

Thanks

The Ameteks common on this board are brushed DC PM gens. The output is fairly smooth DC. Caps won't help.
