I have several NOS 6080s lying around here and want to do some tube rolling to find the right match for my ears.
As the tubes are mostly unused they will need some burn in time.
Thats why the idea of a separate burn in station came up to my mind.
As I understand it should be as simple as that:
-> powerline -> fuse -> switch -> transformer to 6 volts AC -> tube socket (or 2 sockets parallel)
Does that work or did I miss something?
And how much current does each 6080 draw? About 2,5A? If so the power needed would be around 15VA per tube, so a 25VA transformer would be fine for one tube?
