Conflicting Capacitor Part Number

Post by Camshaft »

I'm building the RC1a version of the Wave Bubble and have been using Limor's instructions. I noticed when I was getting the parts for the battery board one of the capacitors listed, C2, was conflicting with the description of the capacitor. The part # listed is UWT0J221MCL1GB which is a 6.3v 220uF cap, but the description says it should be a 6.3v 100uF cap. Does anyone know if I should follow the part number or the description? I'm not super experienced with the Wave Bubble so I could be wrong about this.

I kind of gave up on this project at least for the time being because I just don't think it's that feasible in 2021. A lot of the parts were quite difficult to find (thankfully not too expensive) and many parts should be updated. I don't have a ton of experience with this, but I think it would be amazing if someone were to make a 2021 updated version of the wave bubble.
