It's just for testing, promise 🤞

fascinating. So you've replaced the capacitor with a series of smaller capacitors?
-
Yea, you put capacitors in
seriesparallel when you need to pool the capacitance capacity, put them inparallelseries when you need to boost the voltage (at the sacrifice of capacity)Edit, backwards

It's the other way around. Parallel capacitors boost capacitance to the sum of the individuals. It's like increasing the plates' area. Serial connected capacitors do the reverse: decreased capacitance with greater breakdown voltage, like the dielectric's thickness is increased.

Lol I thought I had it backwards

Electronics is super fascinating to me, sadly it was that one particular class that I wasn't sufficiently good at. so thanks for the explanation!

10000uF is huge, you would need to put them in parallel to add the capacitances, in series your new capacitance becomes C/n, with n the number of capacitor(if equal value each), with the benefit of increasing the voltage rating
