[3dem] LaB6 question

[Riedel, Dietmar]

Hi,
I store ours for years in a desiccator. But I agree Wim, the cathode is sealed by vacuum and therefore they should be protected.

 Hi,

I keep ours in a normal cabinet (so no desiccator) for several years without any trouble.

Best,

Wim

Hi,

Does anyone worry about keeping a spare LaB6 filament for several years before using it?
