Yes, they do use different voltages than magnetically deflected CRTs. The CR70 has a mode switch specifically for electrostatic 'scope' CRTs. You'd need to compare the datasheet for a 7JP4 to something like a 10BP4 to figure out the exact differences.

I agree. I've tested 20 or so 7JP4s and all had very good emissions on the CR70, but definitely vary in brightness when actually used.
