That drawing looks like a flash lamp with trigger coil. This might be used in HID lighting if the anode current is controled after the spark ignition. Depending on the gas composition, the tube conductivity can drop to under a half OHM.

This is what you are talking about, I believe. They can be done as a DIY project, but they take some serious work. Someone made one recently, but I can't remember who.

Good job on the laser diode with module by the way!
