Capacitor question #1:
The polystyrene(?) capacitors - those clear plastic ones - are marked in 4 digits plus a letter. ie - 6800K. I assume that's 6800pf with K tolerance. But then just one of them is 560K, 3 digits. So is that 560pf or 56pf?
Capacitor question #2:
The giant cardboard can capacitor's ratings are toleranced as follows:
200-250uf
120-200uf
100-150uf
With math, I propose the following:
225uf +/- 11%
160uf +/- 25%
125uf +/- 20%
Which, obviously, are very odd numbers. So should I use the minimums, maximums, or go with the oddball middle values I calculated?
