In Reply to: RE: 0B2 & 0A2 Regulator tubes...should they be shielded? posted by Audiodyssey on June 16, 2012 at 08:42:14

Only if they are going to be used in a VERY bright area.
The brighter the ambient lighting the lower the voltage.

They'll strike at a lower voltage if there's light available. I haven't heard that they'll regulate to a lower voltage with light. What would cause that?

They are a "cold cathode voltage regulator tube".
The voltage drop biases the tube.
Direct sunlight will add bias energy to the tube
so that the voltage will be slightly lower.

I have used the OB2 with nice results with no shielding needed. I would use one per tube section.
