I recently bought the Turbo Mini 200 capacitor. It's really nice as it works as several different capacitors in one (with different MFDs). Its a smaller version thats good for blowers.

However, I am not sure if the Turbo 200 (larger version) can handle connections from the fan and condensor. Do any of you know? I couldn't find an answer in the manual.

fan and condensor? did you mean compressor? but anyway i will try and help the turbo capaicitor is made for single value fan applications only. you can not run two fans off one and use as a duel cap because the terminals are in series not in parallel

Thanks. That's what I wanted to know if it can be used as a dual capacitor for the fan and compressor.

So if my dual capacitor is bad, I can't use this. It doesn't seem very valuable to me since I work with condensors that use a dual capacitor.

I carry a big box of standard caps, but also have a 200. I have used as dual several times. Only had one crap out on me so far. Its less $ than making a parts run!
