Based on my limited use of x-rays, you have to have 1. a source of electrons
2. a high vacuum and 3. a target for the electronic to hit and discharge
x-rays.

I don't think that just HV in a vacuum by itself will generate x-rays.
Of course, I'm open to correction. I don't glow. Yet.

      Im not sure but when u run high voltages threw a vacum dont you run 
the risk of generating x-rays?
