We discuss the similarity of the constituent monopoles of calorons and stable topological solitons with long range Coulombic interaction, classical solutions of the model of topological particles. In the interpretation as electric charges they can be compared to electrons and positrons with spin up and down, with quantised charge and finite mass.
