	Greetings. I saw something similar in a good book
	(with a silly cover and title) "How to make your
	own laser, [can't remember the rest]"

	It's thick, about 300 pages, and has several
	projects in it. One of them I think, has a
	plans to build a nigh-vision aid. It consisted
	of a flyback, oscilator, voltage multiplier,
	IR tube (6032), and a nice and to the point
	message that elderly people with pacemakers should
	not touch it! ;-) I believe it has addresses of
	companies that manufacture parts. It also included
	a "specs" sheet for the IR tube (If I remember
	correctly, that is...)

	By the way, it has some other "neat" projects like
	lasers and a 30Watt CO2 laser that you can build
	by yourself (need a HeNe for setup)...

	Take care and have fun (in that order :-)
