I am building a Nixie clock using IN-17 tubes on 16 pin dip sockets. My plan is to use wire wrap sockets for the tubes. I'm about halfway done with the wire wrapping when I suddenly remembered that the potential in these wires is 180 VDC. Has anyone else used wire wrapping for the HV side of a clock? Can I stay out of trouble by careful routing or possibly using a layer of tape between anode and cathode layers?
The cathodes are about 50V, so you only need to worry about the anodes. Use regular 300V hookup wire for those and you'll be fine. -- David Forbes, Tucson AZ http://www.cathodecorner.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
