   1.2A at 6.3v. At tube like the aforementioned 6F6 or the 6V6 could probably be   
   used in its place.   
      
   In rank order:   
      
   6V6: 0.45 A on the heater.   
   6F6: 0.72 A on the heater.   
   6W6: 1.2 A on the heater.   
   50L6: 0.15 A on the heater.   
   12L6: 0.6 A on the heater.
