Yeah, it is quite small. Because it is rated for such a low voltage, the plates can be very close together; and because the current rating is so low, the thickness of the plates can be ultra-thin.

I think that if I tried to use these, they would heat up and expand/pop before too long. Plus, if you look at the ESR, it is kinda high compared to caops designed for high currents...
