I really just want a solid HV power supply... Voltage and current
control with banana plugs.


At those dimensions, I believe a high voltage power supply designed for a CCFL laptop backlight would do.  (For previous generation of laptops, anyway.)   They are cheap from second sources, $20-$40 range.  Make sure to get one with clear pinouts though.

Most high voltage power supplies designed for scientific use are low ripple, designed to be stable for traditional lab use.   However DNA doesn't care if the voltage is rippling +/- 10%, the gel runs fine anyway.
