While attempting to calculate capacitor charging time I came across two conflicting concepts. I think my confusion can be pretty much summed up by the top two responses to this quora post...

If you haven't already, I would put a meter on the pads that go into the lamp from the PCB and ensure it gets voltage there. If that gets voltage then the problem is most likely with the filaments and its probably not worth it to try and fix.

Studied physics and electrical engineering but can't remember much about it! Thanks to the community for all the help in refreshing/furthering my understanding!

Thank you so much for your help! I hope its okay to respond with some follow up questions. I am assuming your first equation is derived from the Weisbach formula. Can I ask how we are okay with assuming k=1? Also, how did you come up with a rough head loss of 24480 feet? I am calculating...

Hello, I am an electrical engineer but was tasked with something a little different this time around and was hoping you guys could help. I would like to determine if my dry air system is sufficient for my purposes and I would like to accomplish that by determining flow rate in CFM. I have been...
