I've found a bunch of 10uH chokes at Mouser. Wondering what the current
rating is on the OEM filament chokes? These look decent?

The Fastron is 680ma where the Miller is only 532, but the Miller has a
higher self resonance and higher resistance. The originals seem to
measure about .5Ω which is more like the Fastron. Fastron is a lot
cheaper too.
The highest filament current tube that I can see is the 5814 at .35A so
I would think 500ma rating for the 10uH choke would be sufficient. 680ma
would be almost double rating.
