Not to say "Mine is bigger than yours", BUT mine is bigger. I am
working on a linear for my S-Line that has a 12KVA 2A @ 6KV
transformer...about 130 lb. I doubt that it will be overloaded with
just one 4-1000A to drive.

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of it, and I got rid of it a while
ago when moving offices. It was a black cube roughly 8" on a side, and
weighed in at 80lbs or so.
I *do* have a few 60mA, 48kV x-ray transformers laying around though.
Those suckers are heavy (>100lbs). I made some nice long plasma
streams with two of them hooked up out-of-phase giving me a >120kV peak
voltage, before I melted a current-limiting inductor in one. At some
point, I need to rewind that coil (it's only got one layer, so it'll be
easy to do once i get some magnet wire).

Heh. About a year and a half ago, I pulled the
transformer out of
an NMI power supply. 4kV at 1.5A rating.
That sucker could blow fuses really well. ;)
Holy moley!! I can imagine... :-)
Could you please post some pics of this monster? I haven't seen one
rated this much before...
