Capacitors are generally a scam unless you understand how they work and what to look for. It's been argued about on this forum for years. Don't waste your money. Upgrade the big three. Put your money into a better battery.


If you REALLY want one though, I have a brand new one I will give to you for FREE as long as you cover the cost of shipping from here.

If your mind is made up about getting a cap.. get one without any display as these often fail and cause batteries to drain.

But seriously, this is what I chose (5F model). It was the right price, physical size for my install and I liked the looks of this one.

Power Acoustik PCX-3F (pcx3f) 3.0 Farad Digital Capacitor (PCX3F)
