Thanks for the info. I have seen some 500V caps and they where pricey so when the Electronic shop told me they where not made any more I had questions. I also woundered if they where NOS caps.

So can anyone point me to the reason why series wired transformers can run away? Is it an inductance issue???? I know I could do it with isolation transformers but I can not imagine what something with enough current handling would cost so I am not considering that at all.

I am though considering that you are 100% correct though. So would it be better to wire then parallel for max current capacity then use a voltage multiplier to get to the voltage I want???? Would it be best to build multiple voltage boards or multiple units?
