I have some old electro caps in here I would like to try rebuilding before using. Any schems for a nice way of making a 1v-400v psu for this purpose? Or should I try a HV PSU with multiple voltage dividers? Also, what´s the timing should I use for increasing the voltage?
How do you do it, if you do?
Also, I´ve heard that old paper in oil caps should also be rebuilt. I don´t think it sounds right to me. I think those are just plain caps with aluminum plates, paper dielectric, and some poisonous oil stuff for sealing. I just want to confirm that those doesn´t need rebuilding, like any other film caps.
As always, thanks!
