You can easily make one yourself from a 4700uF 16V capacitor from Radio Shack, and either an old servo lead or sacrifice a servo extension. Red lead to + (positive) of the capacitor, black lead to - (negative). A bit of heat shrink to cover where the wires solder to the leads, and you're done!

I always smile when they have to invent a term ('voltage protector'), to 'dumb' down such things for people. :rolleyes:
