But you could run two with filament in series, 16 mA to 18 mA and the gm is squared.
I did a very low power TRF AM radio once by using very low collector currents, which means low gain, but the gains multiply and the currents add. Ran for over a month with no on/off and a crystal earphone off an AAA cell. Matchbox, small rod aerial and no aerial wire. MW & LW. Penalty is it's noisier.
