Directly Heated Valve Filament Supply

Valve heater supply by Tentlabs, fully built module.

There are 3 versions available:

• Low noise version, output currents up to 1A. These typically serve small size triodes to be used as line stages. Output noise is 26dB lower compared to the standard version. Often used in conjunction with type 26 tube, integrated heatsink.
• The standard version, output currents up to 2.5A. These typically serve small and medium-size triodes up to output tubes like 300b and 2A3 and have an integrated heatsink.
• 5A version with output currents up to 5A. These will suit the beefy types like 211, 813, 845, and SV572 and have a bigger heatsink.

All versions are voltage adjustable between 1.5V and 12.6V. This is adjusted when the supply is connected to the load.
