Re: Brivaron British Valve & Elec.Accs
Only information I can find are these two pages, radiomuseum suggest they were a small wholesaler with their own brand. Perhaps your valve is a USA import.

Re: Brivaron British Valve & Elec.Accs
This is just a 25Z6 with a different base. The 25Z5 has a 6 pin base, the 25Z6 octal.
25V 0.3A heater type intended for voltage doubler applications 117V rms per plate, 75mA out..... according to the RCA manual, so it probably originated in the USA. |
