I think its more a measure of cathode current through the horizontal output tube that is important. If the current is right, the picture is the correct size, no yoke problems, then you can make a temperature measurement and that will be the temp. Also picture tube current should be correct.

Don't forget it's the current draw on the transformer that generates the heat......

And on the primary side it's the drive current through the winding.....
