Despite the lack of published English data on the Russki caps, Dr Alex, 
UR4LL is pretty good in steering you towards the correct capacitor for 
your intended application. He is very approachable and as honest as the 
day is long.

He also offers the capacitors at very reasonable prices. The proceeds go 
towards his assisting local hospital/s.
