A capacitor containing a solid electrolytic capacitor element including a sintered porous anode body and a relatively large width and/or thickness anode lead tape is provided. The tape is electrically connected to the anode body for connection to an anode termination. Further, the tape has a width that is at least about 20% of the width of the anode body to improve the points of contact between the anode body and tape to reduce ESR. A portion of the tape extends from a surface of the anode body in a longitudinal direction. At least one notch can be formed in the portion of the tape that extends from the anode body. The notch can be formed via a laser or by cutting, punching, or sawing and can serve as the point of electrical connection between the anode termination and the lead tape.
