    You can upgrade the 22000uf [micro farad] capacitor. This is the minimum. You can go larger like 33000uf and make sure it is the higher temp rated one for 105C. They don't all have the same temp rating.

    Hi Tony,

    Just do a web search. You can buy them from many suppliers. Depending on what you get the physical size may increase with it. Some have screw on terminals which I like better than the spade push on types. Usually the small capacitors need to have a spade connector soldered on. It's easy to do.

    If you just want the standard 22000uf I have them here at my shop. $15. I only ship in the US.
