At my surplus store I recently found these incredible
capacitors which deliver 47000uF in a small thimble-sized
can (max 5.5v).  They also had 1.0F caps about the size of an
oreo cookie.  These are neat, but I need more of them in different
ranges and sizes (around 2000uF to 20000uF).  Anyone know where
to obtain?  Thanx in advance.

As an aside, does anyone have information on how these things work?
I haven't sliced one open yet for fear of toxicity.

Is all.
