[QUOTE="webrthomson, post: 148843, member: 3087"] Hey and welcome. The RM100 manual states 28-35 as the accepted range for 6L6's, see here: [url]http://geartunes.s3.amazonaws.com/gear/owners%20manual/RM100manual.pdf[/url] Also I would set your mains voltage correctly as there is a range that it is supposed to work for. I don't know what that is for South Africa but in the UK its 240VAC + 6% and - 10% which makes the actual range from 216VAC to 254VAC. Now I've never see it at the extreme of either end but my house supply is normally about 247VAC. At a guess if you are biased hot and supplying too much voltage I'd guess the fuses would give out now and then :D [/QUOTE]
