The aforementioned have contributed financially to the continuing triumph of 4hv.org. They are deserving of my most heartfelt thanks.
So my grandma was nice enough to drive me to AX-MAN SURPLUS in Fridley today. I originally had gone there to find a motor to make a winding jig to turn my new tesla coil secondary while I poly coat it. In the end I ended up with almost 50 dollars of stuff I have no idea what im gonna do with. (:
Now with it being a surplus store the items aren't exactly new, but they are are in extremely good condition (:
The big blue caps are rated for 4400uF at 300VDC - $14.00
The little caps on the left are rated for 450uF at 200VDC- $7.00
The little caps on the right are rated for 1400uF at 100VDC - $5.90
The two black things are wall plugs, with a fuse and switch - $3.00
There's so much more there too, i'm going back tomorrow to get another batch of items (: I didn't even make a dent in the supplies they had for the things I took. They've got a bunch of tiny little caps for $0.10 - $0.25 i'm gonna grab as well. I'll post pictures tomorrow :)

look for some higher voltage caps and some mkp caps. those are always nice to have. any sort of power supplies are nice too. those big lytics were a hell of a steal.
Yeah, the highest they have is the 300VDC caps, and I think they have 3 or 4 left, but otherwise they have a ton of other components for next to nothing (:

I know this is going to sound sort of wonky, but, would you be willing to trade for one of those SMPS modules? I need a negative supply and one of those would be fantastic!
I'll warn you now, it's not capable of a whole lot of current. I'm not sure on the actual current, but I can test it out and find out for ya if you wish?
