If the top cap is still connected but loose, some super glue will fix. If the cap is off, scrape the existing wire sticking out all around to make it bright, take a thin copper wire and wrap a couple turns around it, touch it FAST with soldering iron & solder. Being quick avoids breaking the tube. Heat the separated cap so that the hole in the top opens. Glue it back on with the wire sticking out, and solder the wire FAST. Usually can fix them this way.
The 80 will be kind of pricey, and the 45 really so. If it's too much, there are ways to substitute other tubes using an adapter, which is much less money, but not so "pretty."
