596 Voltage Drop?

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Does anyone know the voltage drop of the 596 (rectifier)? I've searched -- here and everywhere else I can think of -- but no luck.

I have one on order to try in place of a 5U4G -- mostly just to see what the hype is about. At 5V/3A, it will "work"; but will it WORK?

Thanks!
