  1. caps on Capacitors to Replace Batteries? · · Score: 1

    I think this would be a great deign. Maybe houses would one day have one large capacitor in their basements just like a heating oil tank. The service from the power company can be directly connected to the one large cap, and the house service panel can be stepped down and connected to the service panel and supply the house with power, with a special outlet to provide the high output to supply cars or other larger power sources. This would also alleviate the power grid from brownouts as during peak power period in which power can be coming from the cap and slowly recharge during the day at acceptable intervals and it can replenish lost power during the day at night when there is less load on the grid. ~Truckie174
