    Uffda. IMPORTANT!!!!!
    Diodes must be connected from the opamp input pin to +15V power and -15V power.
    This is to protect the opamp.
    There will be a drawing on my website.

      The automated voice works well although your English is more than good enough and sounds better.

    A separate web site for this valve tester would be very helpful. The English speaking voice is OK and so are the subtitles. Nice project. Music was a bonus. Many thanks. Best wishes.

    Excellent work Helge! That's quite a neat tube tester. To be honest, I prefer when you speak Norwegian and translate your script into English subtitles, but the synthesized voice was surprisingly good!

    I’ll definitely undertake this project when details of the schematic are available. It’s so much better for amateur use compared to factory tube testers that were used by technicians when they had to fix tube equipment in batches and wanted to save every minute of their tedious work.

    • @LA6NCA
      @LA6NCA  8 місяців тому +2

    What a great idea for testing a wide variety of tubes with a minimal outlay of cash are you happy for the viewers of your channel to copy the schematic to build their own version of the circuit. Another great project from you.

    The robot voice pronunciation is quite comical at times, particularly with words like "Kilo" and "Anode." I'm OK with reading subtitles!

      @p1nesap 8 місяців тому +2

      Same, prefer closed captions & listening to Norwegian.
      Or, dub your English over video, it's good enough. This voice doesn't know basic pronunciations.
      Cool vintage tubes!

    Actually you can check for shorts, microphonic's and life strength just by plugging the suspect tube into a working amp.

  • @maxjakobsen5526
    @maxjakobsen5526 8 місяців тому +1

    Always hold the socket when removing a tube. Otherwise, you risk pulling it apart.

      Thanks for the information about the tube socket.
      I have received comments on this on Facebook.
      I did not know this even though I have worked with tubes for many years.
      Great to hear from Denmark. I'm there a lot with our motorhome.
