i wikipediaed farads but i don't really understand how to equate that to let us say wh or how many watts it can give out in a 10s discharge. I am just reading up on this for fun and it intrigues me in its usefulness for various purposes.

Here's something that might help you out with this.

here the idea.
1. fence fires until first set of capacitors are full.
2. than it switches to first set of capacitors and they fire until dead into the second set
3. than second set fire until they are drained and what energy is left is in the first set again
4 repeats sets 2-3 until no usable energy is left.
This would be able to save like 80% of the energy used. I did some quick math...not including set up cost but it could save you ~50% on electricity after you total in the cost for the capacitors. I am more thinking about a high powered fence but it works from what i understand of it.
Also these things prices have been dropping like mad so if you bought bulk of these you could get them probably for 50 bucks a piece maybe less. Interesting idea though. I was also using 13 cents per Kwh for the math. This could save a ton of money if your in an area with higher electricity cost. I personally like the "greenness" of saving 80% of electricity lol
I need help understand maxwell ultra capacitors
