A wet electrolytic capacitor is provided. The capacitor comprises an anode that comprises an anodically oxidized pellet formed from a pressed and sintered valve metal powder, a cathode that comprises a metal substrate coated with a conductive coating, a microporous membrane that is positioned between the anode and cathode and contains an olefin polymer having a weight-average molecular weight of about 1,000,000 grams per mole or more, and a fluidic working electrolyte in communication with the anode and the cathode.
