Hipac - Fixes, fails and a flash of inspiration

I've been playing around with getting my 'Hipac' BGM player to work at the right speed. Can swapping a capacitor really change the speed of a motor? I put that to the test and learn a couple of things along the way.

Regularly asked question
Q) Why are there comments from days ago when this video has just gone live today?
A) Patrons   / techmoan   usually have early access to videos. I'll show the first version of a video on Patreon and often the feedback I get results in a video going through further revisions to improve it. e.g. Fix audio issues, clarify points, add extra footage or cut extraneous things out. The video that goes live on youtube is the final version.
