    Sneaky Tantalum Capacitors

    Today I was in my rubbish bin, and noticed this little Blue Tantalum hiding inside of some heatshrink!
    It was on the back of a power switch.


    Which made me decide to open this guy:





    And inside are two caps and a copper toroid.



    Also noticed a lighter than usual power plug. Normally these are heavy and just contain a single transformer. Well some goodies inside.
