EHT generation by an RF oscillator.

Electrically and galvanically independent EHT units can be found in projection televisions.

I recall as a schoolboy experimenting with a commercial RF EHT generator which came my way in a box of bits.  It was self-oscillating - at least in the way that I wired it - and fed a bright little MW 6-2 projection CRT with its 25kV EHT.  The main EHT generator assembly lived in a aluminium can like an oversize very fat electrolytic capacitor.

I managed to stay alive.

I too found a 25KV eht module in my youth, it made a very impressive Jacobs ladder. I think it may have been a module from a projection TV. It was bit scary.
