I'm full of admiration for the 1j24b, it really packs a punch despite its miserly 11mA filament current.
If there is anything to be wary of, it's the spread in its characteristics. I have two in a circuit, each loaded with 270k anode load, and each with g1 tied to 0V with a grid-leak resistor.
To get the same anode voltage, I need to hit one with 23.6V on g2, and the other 36.4V. So, include trimpots in your build!
