What I was taught was to build a DC doubler one usually took a 555 and produced
a high freq output and then used a voltage doubler (diodes and caps) to double
it and then a smoothing circuit to change back to DC.  Seems like a lot of work
to me.  Perhaps there is a commercial product.  Or alternatively how 'bout
providing the two voltages from the AC source (if it has one)
