| My DOG just swallowed a 470uF electrolytic cap (SMD type) |

See the attached photo. That’s a hot dog sausage(1), which had a CR2032 inserted into it for 3 hours, though noticeable damage was already present after the first hour. That is due to electric current alone: no leak from the battery and no heat damage (everything was sitting below 22°C in 24°C ambient). A hot dog sausage is not representing human body well,(citation needed) but I the picture is giving the right idea about the kind of damage you may expect in esophagus and intestines.

These caps are suddenly not cool. Had one trying to murder me 6 months ago. Had a 16V on a 24V rail (careless mistake) and it exploded like a nuke 2 feet away from my face. Still picking up its paper internal here and there still today. Then boom, the dog thinks it's a treat and throat it down like a pcs of cheese. We're haunted by the Evil Caps it seems Hope y'all had a good laugh with this canine eeAdventure. I certainly did, in a way! --- End quote --- I used to allow our cats in the lab until one day one of those capacitors exploded quite next to one of them. I also don't allow them in the kitchen while I'm cooking. Lab and kitchen are dangerous places. |

Give him a diode to swallow too. That should rectify the problem. |

Like Civet cat coffee - this cap was organically selected for low ESR - effective stomach resistance |
