Never tried it, but I can't see why it shouldn't work. You'ld have to
watch the h-k volts, as usual. Also bear in mind that this is rated as a
damper diode, i.e. sharp spikes at high frequency. I suspect that you
would need to derate it as a rectifier - down to just below anode glowing
point at a guess... ;-)

Get 4 and try it...

If you want some anode glowing and spitten sparken, try using
two models up, 6AL5GT. There are plenty of these available
NOS, probably because they have very limited applications. :-)
