DTV decoder repair, capacitor gets too hot

to keyboard and composed:
Quick check for 1000/25 and 1000/35 Panasonic caps
show ESR goes from .033 down to .025 for higher volt rating.
I just tried a thought experiment, but it failed. :-(
Let's say we have four identical capacitors, each with capacitance C,
esr R, and voltage rating V.
If we connect them as follows, we would expect the equivalent
capacitor to have a capacitance C, esr R, and voltage rating 2V.
