- What DC voltage does this compactron tube need? He doesnt say. And does the filament need 12 v? Ac or dc? Also he doesnt give any model number for this tube, so is there one and only one compactron? And my eyesight is not so good, but I didnt see the component values on the diagram in the video. Is there a pdf With schematic / component values I can download? ( i am a patreon subscriber)

Tube filaments can be AC or DC.
You have to PM Mr. Carlson in Patreon with the video number and your email address you have for Patreon.
It is a 6AH9 tube with 6 volts for the filament.
He will email you with the data files.

@Jimigunne, Larry is right. Alternatively, you can even search online (yourself) for the datasheet and it should give you a good ballpark info… 👍

I believe he said around 220 vdc close to B+. Larry is correct filament voltage is 6 – 6.3, ac or dc I think
