Large 1950's TV Valves

[Jamie-Skinner]

Given me an idea, for the valves that read "0%" on the meter remove the pins and add a blue LED! The perfect ornament

Jamie, you REALLY shouldn't give me ideas like that!

Here's a few from the collection.
L-R;
872A M-V rectifier
U19 rectifier
CV1736 disc seal triode
QY4-400 tetrode
866A M-V rectifier
QE08-200 tetrode
CV22 hydrogen thyratron.
Come on lads, let's see who's got the biggest.

Here's some pictures of large valves in my collection :-

Ediswan 68504 FW rectifier
Mazda P650 battery triode
Cossor 402PENA output pentode
National Union 832A dual tetrode
RCA 3E29 dual beam tetrode
Pinnacle 53KU/GZ33 FW rectifier (distinctive Cossor shape)
GEC GXU50 Xenon rectifier

The GXU50 makes a nice purple glow but probably isn't safe to watch....?

Regards,
Andy
