Malcolm,

I don't see any real problem as long as the cap is small enough so
it can fire regularly, so that the voltage never goes too high.  The 
small cap should reduce the danger of extra-high resonant charging
voltage build-up too.  The output will be weak, but I assume strong
strong output is not your priority in these tests?
