Hi Dan,

Just watched the Melbourne Cup (big event here - hic!) Won $6.00 wow :-)

You're right, I only catered for about 470uF at present, but the PCB is
still 'open' for awhile yet. I figured what I learnt at electronics
school - 1000uF / amp (ball park).

The final product will have the right choice and there is room for a
bigger cap.
