Matt,In today's eMail I received an offer from Goldmine Electronics for a 15 KV negative ion generator that runs off 12 VDC for $10. It's intrinsically current limited, and you can lift it with two fingers instead of two men and a boy like your NST corona generator.
If the polarity is right for your application, then it would be a simple way to go. Special sale price ends 9/30. (No connection to seller, but a frequent buyer).

No that is exactly correct. Another user mentioned that I should be careful using NST for VDG seemingly because there could be short down in the inside of the VDG to the HV brush, allowing potentially lethal currents up to the collector. I've not been able to confirm this exact reason - maybe someone else can chime in on this.
