Home Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Hi Z, how close are the measurements of each half?

Some tubes will measure gas but it is hard to say how much out of spec your tube is without knowing your tester and getting a feel for how the tube tester reacts to tubes. With my testers, I have used them enough to know what to be concerned about and what not to be. But, as you state, don't use your amp as a tester.
