There was one guy on the alternative forum, Curt Reed, who used to refurbish vibrators by connecting them to AC mains with a 40 watt lightbulb in series with it. He has since passed away but his posts are likely archived.
In terms of the hash capacitor is it possible to use a ceramic? Ceramic caps are easier and cheaper to find in 1 KV+ sizes?
