The 6lf6 has a plate dissipation of 40 watts at maximum ratings. [Please login or register to view this link]
Plate dissipation is not the output wattage of the tube.

The plate dissipation rating of a tube is the loss of energy that's converted into heat that can be safely dissipated by the plate of the tube which is called plate loss.
