         I'd be a little cautious with the AT/ATX/'puter supply.
         If its working, finr.  However.  Fundamental to Hollow State
         design is the filaments need to AT spec.  If run cool.
         (by about 15% here...) they will last long, and have
         low emissivity.

         If it works, dandy.
         I'd expect the tubes to underperform, tho..
