These are some things I'd like to do in the future, mostly fun things to try out.

And just some things that I want to compare or just try out/build. Some of this stuff I have done in the past but have completely lost touch with the results and just want to try it out.

 

- Triode driver shoot-out: 5842 vs EC8010 vs 6S45P vs WE437

- Pentode driver shoot-out: D3a vs E810F vs 6688 vs 5847 vs 6Z9P vs 6Z11P vs 6E5P vs 6E6P

 

- Switch-mode supply for B+/heaters

- Voltage regulator using 6S19P and 6Z1P

- Millett hv regulator

- Silicon Carbide diodes in B+ vs tube rectifier

- SiC vs ultra-fast diodes in DHT filament supply

- LM317 current source vs Coleman regs

- Bias methods for small signal tubes: Fixed (PS and battery) vs Cathode (R and LED) vs Filament

- CCS vs LC vs IT vs RC loads
