what voltage of capacitor ??

[ladybug]

as i understand it only electrolytic capacitors need to have voltage measure on them, is that right ??

if so :

 - what voltage to the 2200uF El.Capacitor on the MIDIbox8 power supply ??

 - what voltage to the 10uF El.Capacitor on the MIDIbox8 itself ??

Hopefully one of the smart guys here will jump on and correct me if I am wrong. From what I have observed, as the voltage goes up, so does the size of the capacitor. I used a 35v one for the 2200uf and a 25v for the 10uf on my midibox16 - I wouldn't go bigger than that, allthough I think you can go smaller. I would assume that as long as the voltage of the capacitor is more than the voltage of the power supply - you would be good.
