Hi

The low current also makes it fairly easy to put a simple regulator on the output if the 
regulation turns out to be an issue. Just what circuit you use depends on what’s in your
junk box :)

The transformer also feeds a voltage quadrupler with common ground.  The 200 volt electrolytic capacitors were recycled from a couple of computer power supplies.  If you want more than 134 volts, the circuit can be extended to a fifth cap.
