We have played the set for many, many hours. Yes, it is possible that the tube will fail in the future, but I think it is unlikely. The tube we had rebuilt was a worse case, with a huge leak at the junction between the metal and glass. The sealing method used by RACS (frit glass) appears to work well.

If the two tubes owned by Jerome Halphen are successfully rebuilt, I think we will be ready to recommend that collectors have their tubes done by RACS.

I stand by my statement that the successful rebuilding of 15GP22s is probable.
