RE: JAN GE 5670 black burn marks on getter flashing

Keep in mind that those are not signs of burning. Really, your tubes look just fine to me, and some here say I know what I'm talking about!

Do remember that if the tubes sit for a long time there may be some outgassing of the internal parts, and the getter is there to absorb that. Once that task is done the rate of getter useage drops off.

Don't worry about them, just enjoy them. They are fine.
