It takes more engineering to make things simple.

I know my limitations, usually :-)

Doesn't get hot, except if you want to charge fast _and_ power cycle the

1kV a lot. There's easy way to fix that, too.

Depends on the app. If stationary that can be perfectly ok.

You have to buy a supply that has the required dielectric withstand ratings.

What's an output short got to do with that?

I didnt say output short, you really need to improve your reading skills.

It would seem making things difficult, unworkable and expensive requires alot of engineering as well.

There are a lot of gadgets around that are "over engineered", but I think good engineering is, as Einstein said about good physics theories, as simple as possible but no simpler.

You wrote, quote "Then you need to protect against a shorted device from destroying the "meanwell supply"."

Now what does this mean?
