Thanks for that. Now I know what to use as a substitute for pyro starter 
caps. Never thought of using tantalums. Put a tant in a pot with some gun 
powder and hit the mains switch. Brilliant!

I always knew there had to be some use for tantalums. Well, other than 
going short circuit and blowing up power supplies. Thanks for the tip.

Be absolutely Icebox.
