After some crazy on the middle of the night decision, finally I decided to purchase the Duelund CAST Silver (CAST Ag) Capacitor. My friend bought my CAST Copper (CAST Cu), so this leaded me into a final crazy decision, to buy the CAST Silver.

The 1 uF and 630 VDC version of Duelund CAST Silver will cost you around US$ 900 each or around US$ 1800 pair. The 0.47 uF and 630 VDC version will cost about 5-7.5% difference, maybe different between retailers.

And don’t forget you have to wait around 2 months, not included shipping time, to get this at home – even if you have the money.

I was surprised to see that the outside appearance of this damned expensive CAST Silver was completely the same with my old CAST Copper. C’mon I spent over 2 times for this caps but with same appearance? Did you buy AMG with standard appearance? ;) At least I expected extra muffler, some body kits, new xenon head lamps, and some shinny grille.

The only different was, on the backside. You could side the sticker wrote 99.999% SILVER :)

I must wait several days or weeks, before I can judge this capacitor. But I do really anxious to hear how does it sound!!!

    jimmy, your duelund is bought from partconexxion or direct from duelund?

    i’m a bit doubt as in partconnexion their voltage rating seems is VAC, I’m not sure they make mistake rated vdc as vac or it is really rated in that way.
    u got any idea?

    Hi,
    I believe wherever you buy, the source is the same from Duelund. As far as I know, the Duelund’s rating is based on VDC. You can email Chris/PCX directly to confirm about his rating.

    Thanks.

    Halo Pak,
    Konsekuensi dari rasa penasaran memang mahal harganya.

    Thanks.
