View moreWhen the capacitor is powering the LED, the circuit is an RC circuit with an exponentially decaying voltage. The LED is only going to stay lit for as long as the voltage remains above the forward drop voltage.
Capacitors don't magically discharge, when they are charged they act like small fast-depleting batteries. You could discharge your capacitor by shorting it with a small value resistor (not with a wire, as that could cause it to be damaged). Then the led would start fading again. Why doesn't your LED light up again when you disconnect the battery?
If you are somehow expecting the LED to go off slowly because the capacitor charges up and 'takes away' the voltage from the LED, having the C parallel to the LED won't work - you'd have to have them in series. You'll find though the LED won't light up at all, or only blink very briefly as explained below. You could try a supercap (> 1F).
Since capacitor values are not very precise, and the LED doesn't produce much light at low currents, we can estimate the amount of time the capacitor can power the LED as the time constant of the RC circuit. It's not the exact time, but it will give you a ballpark estimate of the decay time for the fade out.
What happen to the capacitor is that it store the electricity, not consume, until it is charged up to 3V in the opposite direction to the batteries, meaning that the longer tail of the capacitor becomes 3V. So then the voltage drop between the LED gradually (the speed depends on the capacitance of the capacitor) becomes 0V and the LED.
So, the capacitor of the work light that blew up is a 25V 220uF electrolytic capacitor. I do have a few ones in storage with the same spec and material, but the size of it is not the same.
