Regarding w2ise.com, I think my G-data software is quirky. I get blocked occasionally from innocuous sites.

The last cap-dropper I made up was from a scrap ceiling fan.
When I see one on trash day and I have time, I remove the switch and cap assembly and leave the rest there. They have two AC caps of different values.
