Dear Gian-Fausto Sorry, I can only read Italian, not write. Many of these battery models have been converted later for mains supply. I can't even say if or if not htere is also the variant made by the factory. I can only tell that we have a picture of the rear which should go to your "new model" and taht we should tell in the notes of the "normal" 4V31 that some converted chassis are around. Only like this beginners find out that we are true if we feature only 4 tubes on the "original" model ;-) But we will have to enter this text on the notes in English since the set comes from the USA.
