This "warm up" time is not for the purpose of degassing .............
it is only for the proper operation of the tube and usually prescribed by the
manufacturer. Sort of like not starting your automobile which has been
sitting oustside in sub-zero weather and immediately running the engine at max
RPM
in race car mode instead of warming it up gently.
