Re: Strange, I get different results


OK, I'm looking at a set of EL34 pentode plate curves right now and the max current at the min plate voltage (100), at 0 VDC on grid, right at max plate dissipation is 250ma.

100V times 250ma. = 25watts plate dissipation.

My point is if the max current draw for one tube is 250ma. then that's the max draw on the supply. Not 250ma. times two. When the one tube is at 250ma. the other tube is cutoff.
