Blowing up capacitors

You can certainly get non-polarised (asexual?) electrolytic capacitors (internally two polarised caps connected back to back).

I said bisexual like bipolar (the real name) - because it will go either way. Asexual would mean it went neither way, that wouldn't be a useful capacitor.

In series? So a reversely connected capacitor is a dead short?

Could I therefore use a pair of polarized caps connected as such?

Presumably.

Yes - although possibly the caps are specially made for the job. Google provides loads of info. I'm going to read up on it.
