Here's the numbers from the cap tests. The format is cap number, ESR
in ohms, capacitance in ufd.
Column 1, out of the drawer after sitting unused for maybe 25 years.
Coulmn 2, after 24 hours with 15V applied.
1 .19, 100 .18, 105
2 .22, 100 .20, 100
3 .21, 105 .20, 100
4 .20, 110 .19, 105
5 .21, 115 .20, 105
6 .21, 109 .20, 102
7 .24, 103 .22, 098
8 .23, 098 .21, 098
9 .16, 112 .16, 112
10 .21, 100 .20, 100
11 .22, 099 .21, 098
I don't notice any big changes. Capacitance and ESR may be down a bit.
Or it may be a temperature effect. I've now got them all sitting at
their rated voltage of 25V.
