If you have only ONE tube?
Probably best if you do not go through all the time and effort to build with
that one tube. They are extremely rare.
Suggest using a Ruskie tube of equal Pd or two Ruskie tubes making up a similar
Pd?

Have 3 8295's That amplifier was badly under cooled. Instead of using a squirel cage blower.. There was an anemic bladed fan located under the socket. Down load the Eimac spec sheet for an 8295. Use the recommended socket and chimney. Ensure that the blower you use provides the proper CFM at that stated water column. That tube will make a lot of power if cooled properly.

Have the Eimac socket and chimney and Dayton blower. FYI -- Info from another forum: The "Heatsink" is a batwing fin type of design that attachs to the center pin. The center pin is connected at the tube base to pin #5 which is the heater.
Thanks for the responses
