Default What is the 6 volt equivalant to a 35L6 or 50L6?

6W6GT is a direct equivalent exc heater voltage. However, this thing draws 1.2A at 6.3v. At tube like the aforementioned 6F6 or the 6V6 could probably be used in its place.


In rank order:

6V6: 0.45 A on the heater.
6F6: 0.72 A on the heater.
6W6: 1.2 A on the heater.
50L6: 0.15 A on the heater.
12L6: 0.6 A on the heater.
