Depending on the Toriod, 3uf to 5uf - 4uf is what I ended up using. Much higher then 6uf and you start to run into problems. IMHO 2uf is too low.

I tested from 2uf to around 12uf with an AC distortion analyzer - no real benefit, it only effects Idle harmonics a bit, but not distortion under load, as it's swamped by the distortion caused by the crap loads. That was true for the Inverter and for AC mains.

BTW Very nice build. I'm just starting on the second controller.
