Has any one tried the retube kit from Eurotubes for the Single Rectifier/Solo 50 series that uses 6V6 tubes to drop the wattage to 25 watts?

Would need a significant rebias.
For a short time Groove Tubes sold underperforming 6L6 tubes as 6V6 replacements when they couldn;t get 6V6 tubes. I put a pair in my Fender amp at the time. The tubes worked fine, but the bias voltage had to be moved quite a bit. The tubes came with a big warning note about it.
I assume that if you can go one direction, you can go the other as well.

I have JJ 6v6 for my RoV. I originally purchased from Eurotubes simply because the site said "Too loud? Try these..." thought it would improve bedroom volume.
Not necessarily true.
In terms of tone, the only difference was a warmer clean. I still prefer 6L6.
Also, didn't require a change in bias. Able to run safely with switch on EL34.
