Key Characteristics & Specs
Maximum Plate Voltage: Rated up to 400V (higher than standard EL84/6BQ5 limits), offering increased clean headroom and voltage tolerance. [1]
Plate Dissipation: 12W maximum. [1]
Compatibility: Can be dropped into any standard EL84 or 6BQ5 socket, making it a popular performance and reliability upgrade for vintage gear. [1, 2, 3]
