Hi Dave,

sorry to hear about your problem with the old production Elrog tubes. The former company Elrog went bankrupt in 2016 and I purchased the materials, machines and brand name. The Elrog tubes produced since summer 2016 are completely redesigned. Especially the 211 and 845 got a complete new structure in summer 2017. These solved all the reliability issues of the old production tubes. Of course we are not long enough on the market for any meaningful statistical data, this will take years. So far the failure rate in the field is at a very low rate below 1%. Even with that low rate we examine the fails to further improve the tubes.

Best regards

Thomas
