If I have done my math properly, I only need six of these in series to get a
capacitance of .00783mF (which is in my LTR range) and a voltage of 18,000v
(which exceeds my NST voltage)
Remember a 15 kV transformer has a peak voltage of 15*sqrt(2)= 21.2 
kV, so you might want a bit more margin. Also, a single string may or 
may not be able to handle the currents flowing.
