Question Phantom Power with Tube condensor

Hey everyone,
I have a tube condensor right now, which runs on an external power supply, of course. I am running on a DAW, where the mic inputs have selectable phantom power, but are not selectable for each channel. So I was just wondering if it is harmful or anything in any way to my tube condensor or its sound quality if I were to turn the phantom power on to power another condensor that needs the phantom power. I am looking to get a new mic, I would get another tube condensor, but I think my budget is limiting me otherwise. So any advice would be appreciated.

Nope. Shouldn't bother it in the slightest.

Talking Nope

I asked STudio Projects that question when I bought my T3 and they said " it won't hurt a thing" because the power supply was transformer isolated.
