Hi, how much overhead (not sure if this is the right word I'm looking for) are defibrillator caps usually designed with? Lets say I have a 5.5kV cap, can I safely charge it to 6-6.5kV, if I make sure the voltage never exceeds the upper limit? Can a defibrillator capacitor tear itself apart when it breaks down internally?
Thanks
