Hey Rhys...

You may want to consider laser flash tubes...  quite bright, very fast 
pulse rates. If you need consecutive pulses within micro or milli 
seconds, cooling factors should be considered...

The best I can do with a xenon flash is shown on my website under "high-speed". I'm hoping to build a truly high-speed flash with a duration of 0.5 microseconds. The fastest xenon is 1/100,000th of a second. Edgerton noted this in his book "Electronic Flash, Strobe".
