I have all up to 9kV
currently the highest I have is for me :) a 8kV 100mA, but more should come... in Belgium they prefer to use multiple 8kV ones in split tube setups than typical US 12kV 30mA
I also have what is needed to build stacks (for now I could sell something like a quadruple stack of 3k-0-3k 50mA for 180~200mA of safe 6kV)
I'm currently gathering interest, as I'm waiting a window in my time to go to my furnisher and gather something like 300kg of them
there should be more than enough types of transformer to content everyone
I also have other kinds of voltages like 0-2kV 100mA, 3.2kV-0-3.2kV
I'm currently trying to develop some kind of phase angle thyristor based switcher in order to tweak their output, but I'm really worried about power factor here
I'm also looking to gather graphite electrodes and cold cathodes from broken tubes, but the most interesting thing would be a complete tube manufacturing rig (flame + forming tools)

I tried driving a NST (a FART as it happened :) ) off my Mk2 phase angle controller and it worked fine. I was able to dim a neon sign connected to it. The power factor was pretty bad, but it is bad with NSTs anyway because they use their high leakage inductance for ballasting.

selling NSTs in Belgium and nearest Europe
what's the highest voltage you have?
