I have some big ass mylars, I think they are 4uF @ 200v.

I know, I was just about to reply to my post saying that the voltage
rating is VDC.


** Film caps rated at 600VDC will generally last a fair while wired across a
120 volt AC supply ( but not with a 240VAC supply ) - but is it far better
to use a purpose designed and agency approved "class X1" or "classX2"
capacitor.
