Hi Ronn,
I am not familiar with this device. However, it has to be able to work
with say 400kV, 200kHz, pulsed with a 1% duty cycle. Not a trivial
specification. If it will work, be sure and let us know the details of the
device!
You may want to see the following link too for more info:

Cheers,
Terry
