For sell three (3) Western Electric 205D triode tubes. I have checked these tubes and the results are as follows: Tube 01: Plate Voltage= 175 Volt, -Ug= 7.5 Volt, result Ia= 20 mA (new is ~15 mA) Tube 02: Plate Voltage= 175 Volt, -Ug= 7.5 Volt, result Ia= 17 mA (new is ~15 mA) Tube 03: Plate Voltage= 175 Volt, -Ug= 7.5 Volt, result Ia= 7 mA (new is ~15 mA) At one of the attached pictures a crackle at the tube socket is visible. The overall condition of the tubes is perfect. Two of the tubes shows measurement results above the value of new tubes. To check the tubes I didnt use an old tube tester but I build my own schematic. Shipping wordwide, no restrictions, no returns, I am a private seller not a shop/company.

Still selling off tubes amassed from the years of working on old radios and tube equipment. I sold one of these a couple of weeks ago and this is my last one. This is a nice rare tube that is in super clean shape. There are no markings on the base - unfortunately they are worn off but it is definitely a Western Electric VT-2 or 205D tube, also known as a tennis ball tube with the glass blown tip and a glass support inside. The tube is in really nice shape, no breaks at all. Unfortunately I do not have a way to test this tube. Its a different base than say an 01A and I dont want to risk damaging it. However I have tested the filament for continuity and it is still good. I know people collect these even only for display but there is a good chance that this is still functional but I am selling as UNTESTED. The only thing I can guarantee is the filament is good. I will ship anywhere in the world, local pickup is always free. If you have any questions, please dont hesitate to ask. If you purchase more than one tube from me I will combine shipping and I can also hold tubes if you wish to bid on other auctions that I list every week and then combine later.
