Yes, I said that. Neither the 5AXP4 or 8XP4 test CRT are aluminized or use ion traps. They state in the original packaging that they are not intended for extended use. Just how long it will take for the burn to become noticeable I do not know.

I do know that I purchased mine used and they have burns.
