The BCR for 5V engines is four 1.5F 2.7 volt capacitors in series with a Zener diode across each cap to equalize the charge voltages. The cost will be a bit more than $1.
Don't they look the same?
Agreed the cost will be more than $1 with Zenars. The Bcr for 5volt is actually pretty reasonably priced when you take into account time. Not so convinced on the 9v version at $30. Have you dissected a 9 volt BCR?
