I had a customer come in two weeks ago with the same claim, I think it was some Tsunami piece that had "5,000K" written on it somewhere. He was absolutely convinced too, I even showed him was a single farad cap looked like, he said it was about the same size!
Later that same day I had a completely different guy tell me that he was using his 12V cap in a 110V AC system. :-) Some people really must think I'm a moron (must be my ravashing good looks, they look at me and say "He can't possible be that good looking AND smart!")

i don't know why people know everything about bad brands, but NO sh1t about something good. Nobody comes here to ask about DD or Treo, they come here to ask about pyramid, audioBUM and sony after they buy the thing...

A lot of capacitors i have seen actually have the measurement in microfarads (10^-6) so 500k = .5 farad...
