Correct Jim, certainly would not want anyone to be stuck with a tube/s that
will not "fit" for them. That is from a physical size aspect. Electrically
the tube can be dropped in to replace an 8877 ala 3CX1500A7 with no problem.
The filament will tolerate a higher voltage/current, but works ABSOLUTELY
fine at regular voltage with no decrease in emission. It simply handles more.
As far as plate voltage is concerned it will handle 5500 volts plus without
turning into a hand grenade. Many homebrewers (yo..what's that) are now
seeking these tubes in place of regular 8877 tubes. Happy New Year Jim. 73
