Qty needed (2) of each. Replacement of capacitors and rectifiers is a quantum leap in durability for the weakest parts in the Megawatt. These parts are a snap to change out. Upgrade from 60 amp to 160 amps capacity and to 150 volts PIV. These rectifiers run much cooler than the originals.

The Panasonic ESR capacitors replace the # 1 Megawatt circuit failure component. Like the rectifiers above these capacitors run cooler. I have tortured them and they did not fail.

This is a -can do- upgrade for anyone who can solder.

Sure. The Panasonic Megawatt has a few anomalies.

The original machine had a base plate of prefabulated aluminite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two main spurving bearings were in a direct line with the pentametric fan. The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzlevanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-delta type placed in panendermic semi-bovoid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a nonreversible tremie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the "up" end of the grammeters.

Could someone translate this post, please!
What I post is my 2 cents and nothing more. Please don't read anything into my post that's not there. If you disagree, that's OK.
Can't we all just get along?
