Recommendations for a vacum tube tester


Any suggestions for something under $150?

For a low-cost device, the Orange is pretty good.  It is very easy to use, and gives realistic assessments (it is a tougher grader than a TV-7 which seems to find every tube is strong).  But, a friend noticed that it seems a bit under powered when heating up certain tube types, like KT 88s, so one has to go through multiple test cycles to heat the tube to get a good reading.
