The high-reliability version is the '''[[6922]]''' aka '''[[E88CC]]''' (6.3 V, 300 mA heater) or '''[[8416]]''' (12.6 V, 180 mA heater).


With 15 mA of plate current, 90 V plate-to-cathode voltage, and −1.3 V grid-to-cathode, the 6DJ8 provides 12.5 mS of transconductance with a plate resistance of about 2.5 kΩ.
