Well, I just found out what happens when ~3300uf at 250V shorts out. I was troubleshooting a new power supply I built when I accidentally shorted out the caps with my test probe. There was a loud explosion and a blinding flash of light as caps discharged and vaporized the metal part of the test probe and sent metal bits flying across my desk. That was...interesting.

Say, do you want it to be a threesome with your wife? Or a foursome with your wife and sister-in-law? I'm up for either. :P
