Text:
Almost identical in appearance to the FE1 valve (first produced in 1920), but with a few noticeable differences, including a wider spacing between the turns of the helix in the inner grid and with frosted bulb at glass end nearest the anode. Despite suggestions to the contrary, the FE1 and FE2 were identical in size. Both were bright emitter type radio valves.
