HT Smoothing Condensers

[Mike Watterson]

1mF on a cap can mean 1 milli (1980s Japanese caps) or 1 micro (old 1950s UK caps).

There are these

Not all conversions will work perfectly. This is because here at the Reg Standards Soviet, our priority has to be preserving the accuracy of our own units. Accordingly, all our conversion factors are Reg standards.

To maintain our own high standards, we've had to shave a teensy bit of accuracy off everyone else's. For instance: there are 8 furlongs to a mile, which means 25 miles should convert to 200 furlongs. But it actually converts to 199.something furlongs. As our technical wizard explains: "To turn a mile into anything else, it first needs to be converted into linguine".
Area (nanoWales - nW)
Force (Norris - No)
Length (linguine - lg)
Temperature (Hilton - Hn)
Volume (grapefruit - gf)
Weight - (Jub - Jb)
Velocity - (Percentage of maximum velocity of sheep in a vacuum)
Money - (Pogba - Pg)

I'd advise people not to discuss what a Jub is, as this is a family friendly forum.
