Hello folks,
I have a pentode/triode combination tube which runs on low voltages (12V anode). I am only using the triode for now. I didn't connect the grids and anode of the pentode, but since the triode and pentode share the kathode, electroncs are moving in the direction of those pentode grids...
Can this hurt the tube?
Greetings,

are you sure of this? strange!

There have been a few valves like this.
The only B9A valve I know of is the ECL80.
Among 7 and 8 pin valves, Eg B7G, Octal it is necessary to share because there are not enough pins.
