So Leyden Jars normally occupy the absolute bottom of the capacitor
list.


But this jar it better than the shoe box.

No. Jar is heavy weight, cardboard box is light weight. Cardboard box is
easier to stack than jars in order to increase capacity. Have to buy jars
whereas cardboard shoe boxes are usually free from the shoe shops and are an
ideal size for storing electrons.

What did Marconi say about brown shoes?
