Hello all. I'm slightly better than a newbie with electronics, as in I know how to read diagrams & assemble circuits. I have inherited an antique radio which I'd like to replace the old tubes with modern, energy efficient electronics. There are 4 different types of tubes, but the first I'd like to work with is the rectifier.
The type 80 rectifier is a half-wave rectifier with 650V 36mA AC input and 5V DC output. In addition to that I'd also like to include a bulb/LED of some sort to maintain that nostalgic orange glow the tube gives off when it's powered up.
Thank you
