• what is the recycling story for Tantalum?
   
• what does the voltage number on the cap mean?

Polarized

electrolytic

capacitor

Connected backwards:

• No safe voltage level! (but not dangerous with vented caps)
   
• Don't do it! (or.. do itttt 😈)

Connected correctly:

• Safe as long as the applied voltage is less than the voltage rating
   
• All our caps are rated at least 10V!

• what is the recycling story for Tantalum?
   
• what does the voltage number on the cap mean?
   
• is the guy from the video ok???
