Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

RE: No, I believe it's the heat in watts that is important.

Don't want to argue with you, but both the filament of a light bulb, and a tube, are resistive elements. A bulb rated 40 watts at 120V, won't run 40 watts at 80 volts. At a lesser voltage, the bulb will be dimmer, so using less watts.
