Blackouts Cap - 0.047 Or 0.47?

So what is is then? I ordered an RS Guitarworks 0.047 cap, only to find out that the blackouts need 0.47.

It's .47, and we just changed it on our diagrams in-house. The .047 will still work, but simply to a far lesser degree. It'll just shave off the very top end. .047 is a value seen in bass or hollowbody diagrams, and I think when we made ours we just cut and pasted that graphic, missing the decimal point! Sorry for any confusion.

Another question about blackouts: Does the bridge-neck set works on a 9V battery or 18V (two 9V)? Or both are ok? I appreciate your response.

18v will not let you get any cleans from the guitar
i like how 18v sounds with the bridge pickup, focused, sound doesn't get lost and every note has super definition.
blackouts are the best actives
