Thanks!
If the meter comes to an abrupt stop, then there would be mechanical binding. Don't know that it would happen to two of the same instruments.
The Mighty-Mite checker is one of the better small emission checkers out there, but it is still only an emission checker.
IIRC, they tie all the elements together and check the tube as a rectifier.
They were good for weeding out the real weak or dead tubes. Also for leakages or shorts.
