Valve el33 and kt6112/17/2022 ![]() ![]() Whilst it may "work" to exchange these tubes it should not be done without circuit changes.Īlso kindly act please on Mr Erb's request to remove "directly" in your posting so that there is no possible confusion! We must be careful not to leave information that could prove dangerous to equipment or to people! Thank you. The power limitation on the E元3 is 9W whereas the 6V6 is 12W the output impedance is different. ![]() Replacing an E元3 with a 6V6 without changing grid bias would not be a good idea! More seriously the biasing requirements are different and could cause dangerous excess anode currents. THe heater current of the E元3 is 0.9A compared with 0.45A for the 6V6. They have the same base, connections and heater volts but differ considerably. "The 6V6 and E元3 are NOT equivalent! A hasty note of warning! I have just seen that you also posted to the E元3, so I copy my comments made to the 6V6 below as a caution.
