6C33C-B For Sale (not any more)

Return to John's Valve Page

The 6C33C-B is the ultimate power triode. Originally designed as a voltage regulator for the avionics in Russian military aircraft, it is the ideal high current triode for applications such as transformerless (OTL) power amplifiers and power supplies. A few years ago I was offered a deal on a large quantity of them, and I had various projects in mind so I bought them. Since then the projects have faded away but my several hundred 6C33C-Bs most certainly haven't. I'd really like to get back the space in my garage, so I'm offering them at a good price. They are new in the original very substantial Russian packaging, and are dated 1992. (Last ones have now been sold - sorry).
