Need Voltage Doubler Circuit

Should I regulate the output? How about a voltage regulator IC like
the LM317?
I suspect you might be able to get by with sufficient
filtering, but if you want to try regulation, you need a
unit that is rated for the full supply across the regulator,
like the TL783 (less than $2 from Digikey).

Keep in mind that you have to start with a supply that stays
at least 2 volts above the regulated output, even at the
bottom of the ripple and at low line voltage, so you will
need a significant extra voltage at the input supply.
