Oooh, I like 3v. That makes running 5x (15v max) in series less risky for exceeding any single caps voltage rating. My 5x 3400 farad caps with a 2.85v rating is getting a bit close for comfort with a 14.25v max voltage.
I just wish they would invent a cap with a 15v rating to boot, even if it needs thicker insulators and has less power density. A single 500 farad cap with a 15v rating would be sweet. No balance issues to contend with, and no loss of capacity from adding multiple caps in series.
