Mike, just an observation on my part, but isn't the 125 mA the current draw for the heater in the tube? If an 80 is identical in all other respects to a 5Z3 I would think the lighter draw on the transformer couldn't be a bad thing. I am by no means an authority on the subject... just applying my view of common sense to the application. I could very well be wrong. Take care, Gary
