Abstract
An electrical device 11 (e.g., a battery charger) has a support 53, 55 for simply, economically and stably mounting a large electrical component 21 (e.g., a capacitor) in a housing 13 and relative to a printed circuit board 19. Housing 13 of device 11 has a cover portion 15 and a base portion 17. Cover portion 15 has a first support 53. Base portion 17 has a second support 55. Printed circuit board 19 is mounted in base portion 17. Electrical component 21 has projecting core end segments 61, 63 which are particularly suitable for clamping between legs 67, 69 of support 53 and cradles 83, 89 of support 55.
