Hello. I got this night vision tube



I want to power it with 18.000 volts in grid 2 and 2.000 in grid 1. I´m thinking on using a small DC flyback and a voltage divider in this way



Will it work?

Thank you

Best regards

At those voltages both insulation and leakage will be a problem. so a flyback source with a multi-step multiplier can be the best choice.
