Kevin Weddle got a reaction from HaddyS in High Voltage low amperage
Generating a very high voltage with a small battery is an interesting idea. In theory, a transformer can produce any voltage, depending on it's turn ratio. They can also be cascaded. Are there any designs that utilize cascaded transformers, and if so, why isn't one transformer used?

A transformer will deliver a high enough voltage that you want. High voltage transformers are expensive, but can usually be found in electronics products no longer used, and be cascaded for high voltgage. Be aware that high voltage burns and shock can occur, and a high enough voltage can lay you in the hospital.
