Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

RE: Jim, just to be clear...

The Philips family tubes (and companies that used Philips machinery/parts later such as Ei) are the ones that use the high inrush current heaters. There are others like (IIRC) the 2E26 that flash at startup because they are designed to warm VERY quickly.

I can only recall seeing this on the Philips miniatures.
