1.Extremely large capacitance to volume ratio, small size, low ESR.

2.Available in hundreds, or thousands, of farads. A relatively new capacitor technology.

3.Often used to temporarily provide power to equipment during battery replacement.

4.Can rapidly absorb and deliver larger currents than batteries during charging and discharging, making them valuable for hybrid vehicles.

5.Polarized, low operating voltage (volts per capacitor cell). Groups of cells are stacked to provide higher overall operating voltage.
