You can also use a smaller tube to "shunt" the main tube, but you must
shield the "shunt" tube from the ignite pulse and the UV light of the
main flash.

They used to make a NE2 sized xenon tube as a shunt, but now you
could use a 1" tube froma disposable camera, or a triggered spark
gap.

Or you could have multiple capacitors charged up. Discharge no 1
followed by no 2 ( if no 1 did not provide enough light ). Followed
by no 3 if no 1 and no 2 did not provide enough light.

This would give a slightly longer time, but surely could discharge
three or four caps in less than 2 ms.
