Abstract: A housing has a bud portion abutting an elongated stem portion. The bud portion is to fit within an ear. The bud portion has a primary sound outlet at its far end that is to be inserted into an outer ear canal, and abuts the stem portion at its near end. A speaker driver is inside the bud portion. Electronic circuitry inside the housing includes a wireless communications interface to receive audio content over-the-air and in response provides an audio signal to the speaker driver. A rechargeable battery as a power source for the electronic circuitry is located inside a cavity of the stem portion. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Abstract: A daul AC motor-run capacitor has a pair of oval plastic end caps to hold round would capacitor sections in place in an oval can. Each cap has upstanding pins to engage the ends of each capacitor section and hold it firmly in place. The upper cap has at least one slot therein for the passage of an electrode tab from the wound sections for connection to at least one terminal. The bottoms of the sections are electrically connected and provided with a common electrode tab. When the can and cover are metal, this common tab passes through an insulative sleeve along the length of the sections for connection to its terminal.
