Default Re: Condenser capacitance.

All modern commercial capacitors have a manufacturer's rating for maximum temperature as well as maximum voltage. The capacitors I used in my "Trash Cans" had a maximum voltage rating of 400 volts with a maximum temperature of 125° centigrade. Most automotive capacitors made currently are not of good quality and will fail for several reasons. They do not (as far as I can find out) carry voltage and temperature ratings and cannot be trusted. That's why I started making my own.
