Hello, I have designed a simple 400 volt magnetic coil (solenoid/electromagnet) driver circuit, using an SCR, a capacitor/s, and a copper electromagnet.
There doesn't seem to be any type of capacitor specifically designed for high intensity coil driving circuits, other than 330 volt "photo flash" type.
Is there any disadvantage to creating a 660 volt capacitor bank of 10 cheap photo flash capacitors, by using twice as many capacitors, with 2 separate rows of 5 capacitors connected in "parallel" then connecting each bank together with a "series" connection?
