    Hi Kirk.

    What kind of rectifiers and capacitance are used in the stepper motor project?

      Hi Aage,

      The rectifiers are Schottky with with as low of a forward voltage as I could find in my junk box. The lower the forward voltage the better, because this is where you will lose a lot of the power. The capacitors I had were also out of my junk box, they were 8600uF 10V.
