Thanks.  I'll find out in a few days I guess because the doorknob caps I
have will only withstand 20 Kvdc and I don't have enough to series them for
increased voltage.  More are on the way, but still won't be able to use the
full 15/30 without using an alternative cap, like the salt water type (which
I have had pretty good success with in the past).
