The photonis tubes i had were well in the range of gen 3 performance. They were better than the litton gen 2+ tubes that power supply came from, and i bet that litton power supply is tough as nails, so this should be a nice combo.
This is a pretty cool project, and eventually i'm going to try doing one of these instead of selling you all my dead stuff. Lol. I'm just glad you're taking lots of photos and sharing the process, because that was my only request. So thanks for doing this. I didn't think the repotting procedure would be that horrible.
1. What are you using for vacuum, and what amount of vacuum are these sitting at and for how long?
2. How much do you have invested in deoxit, elastomer, and your vacuum setup?
3. What do you think it costs you per tube to repot them?
