Other than the voltage rating I don't see any differences on
the data sheets I've looked at. Why not just make and use 1kv diodes
alone?

=================================

Because somebody like you would complain about no 2kv diodes being
available.

Like me in what way? Curious? Uninformed? Ignorant? Whipped with
extension cords as a child? Raised by circus performers? Eats
mayonnaise out of the jar when depressed?

Come to think of it, why the heck *aren't* there any 2kv diodes
available?!

And how come I can't buy air-variables for a buck down at the corner
electronics store?!
