Default Caution - InterAv "Spike Guard" Capacitor

Okay guys, I cut the cap open.

No foil that I can see. In fact, I'm not sure how this thing works. I thought
the idea was to create maximum surface area.

I probably should have buzzed the negative terminal to the can to see if
connected. (Can do that tomorrow).

Black stuff has a strong order to it...

In any event, it seems that, with vertical mounting, lugs down, either
component could rattle its way to short the inputs. I'm surprised it didn't
happen.
