Method of making and use of an automatic system to increase the operating life of vacuum tubes with a vacuum tube device

A vacuum tube optimization circuit can automatically ensuring that the preheating required for the thermionic effect to occur within the vacuum tubes within a vacuum tube device, has been sufficient to allow the vacuum tubes to reach their operating temperatures, before allowing signal voltage or cu...

More Information
Summary:A vacuum tube optimization circuit can automatically ensuring that the preheating required for the thermionic effect to occur within the vacuum tubes within a vacuum tube device, has been sufficient to allow the vacuum tubes to reach their operating temperatures, before allowing signal voltage or current to be applied to their anodes, cathodes, and/or other thermionically-active components. This reduces the diffusion of component-specific surface material coatings onto the surfaces of other internal elements within the vacuum tube, functioning to extend the service life of the vacuum tubes.
