'This is my "build-and-forget" pure DC supply solution for my phonostage tube heaters.'

Really ? It seems that you built it then forgot a battery does not maintain it's charge . I bet a 5AH cell only has around four hours use , less if you've purchased cheap batteries which have past their shelf life date . How do you keep the heaters within +/- 5% of 6.3 volt for the heaters ? A much better solution would be to use an extra SLA in series and a CCS between the heater supply and the battery . This would maintain the heater supply at optimal conditions , even when the batteries begin to drain .
