Started researching components

Decided to go with a small flyback transformer that only draws 2 amps of current. I also found a wall wart which I'm going to take apart to integrate into the enclosure, since it's an extremely small package. I'll use one of those special toggle switches to swap the power supply between 120VAC and 20kVAC. I decided to not wind my own transformer since that would require a hefty power supply and driver and insulation. One of the wimpy tiny ones will do for this projects.

Going to add a couple parts I found here as reference:
