16 volt zener giving 17 volts

jemshaw

Replacing the 16v zeners in my 130hd reverb with the 5 watt variety now giving 17v
is this a problem short term? or long term?
1n5353B are the diodes i put in.
Now have read up that there are toterances of 5 to 10% in some
Is it a problem to play in the meantime? or am i just being over protective :)
Cheers
