        I would definately be interested in one... I'm in need of filter
caps for
various DCTC's, and I need the larger capacitances.  The only drawback is
that the
rated voltage needs to be 2kv+, preferrably 4-10kv.  down voltage is 2kv+.
(don't
know whether you'll be able to find this out?)  If you give me some idea of the
size and weight, from that I should be able to figure out whether they are
useful
to me.
