Has anyone thought of using capacitors between the inverter and battery? Would this work

Re: Has anyone thought of using capacitors between the inverter and battery? Would thisThe new car audio stiffeners, are actually hybrid supercaps. http://absoluteusa.com

Supercaps are quite a bit harder to spec and wire. It isn't as simple as a battery.
and AFIK, they cannot be stacked in series to get higher voltage than 12V. And the "specs" on that page have no voltage range, internal resistance or any electronic spec.Powerfab top of pole PV mount | Listeroid 6/1 w/st5 gen head | XW6048 inverter/chgr | Iota 48V/15A charger | Morningstar 60A MPPT | 48V, 800A NiFe Battery (in series)| 15, Evergreen 205w "12V" PV array on pole | Midnight ePanel | Grundfos 10 SO5-9 with 3 wire Franklin Electric motor (1/2hp 240V 1ph ) on a timer for 3 hr noontime run - Runs off PV ||

I don't know if that module can be stacked or not. It is a module with several caps in series and some sort of charge control plus the display, etc.
The caps I was looking were the lic supercaps, like:

If you want just a module. You might have to ask them about 48v though, their highest rated one was 45v, which I am sure is a limitation of their configuration, and not so much a limitation of the hybrid technology. Since the individual modules are stacked parallel and in series like regular caps.
