EZ81/6AX5GT Hybrid power supply approach

In my experience these TV rectifier and/or flyback ballast diodes are very forgiving in terms of voltage capabilities.

Yes, but the EY82 is no flyback diode, the EY81 is.

I said rectifier and/or flyback diodes, so either of both.
Best regards!

How forgiving is the maximum current rating?

Voltage ratings all has to do with basically what we would call nowadays creepage or clearance distance.
So yeah, that's give or take a bit (and as manufacturer you want to be on the safe side)

Thanks, but guess what I have as my standard home pages (for many years now) 😛😉
