I've been looking around at the usual places for high voltage ceramic caps and I'm finding them to be rather expensive.

Mouser only has two in stock that are 4700 or larger at 6,000 volts.
0.01uF @ 6kV = $5.23
0.0047 @ 6kV = $2.20

The largest Digi-Key has is 0.002 @ 6Kv for $1.02

Allied Electronics
0.0047 @ 6kV = $2.01 ( currently out of stock )
0.01 @ 6kV = $3.44
http://www.alliedelec.com/passive-co...673-4294959805

So two 0.01 from Allied would be about 7 bucks. Might as well just use the less expensive 0.0047 ASC caps.

Does anyone know of a cheap source of HV ceramic caps ?
