Hi Chris, more likely you would burn up the NST. NSTs arn't very
tollerant of any voltage increases but are very tollerant of current
increases! Instead try and get more similar NSTs and but them all in
paralel ie two 7.5 KV/30 ma NSTs in paralel gives 7.5 KV -at- 60 ma. the
lower voltage is easier to quench and puts less strain on the transformer
and a 7.5 KV cap is much easier to build (and less prone to breakdown)
than a 15 KV one.
