For a few
bucks, you could get a 5 Volt transformer with a decent
current rating of 10 Amps, and not have to worry about the number of
tubes you need to feed for a while.
Filament transformers come in many voltages other than 6.3.
Ya, it would be more authentic but the filament supply would then weigh 20 lbs
instead of 2.
And why is this a problem? It's hardly going to be a portable device, is it?
