Out of interest, do they all regulate OK?  BTW, 60mA is prob high - my data 
suggests that Ik is 5mA min and 30 to 40mA max.  The min supply voltage starts 
at 105V.

  Drat, and double drat.  I was really hoping I had some defective tubes here.  
they look pretty and purple in the dark, but not so much with the lights on.
  Oh well, I'll stick to neon, and nixies I guess!
  Thanks!
  Shane.

      60mA current.  Any ideas?

    Cameras lie. Photos of glowing things are often much more glowy than the 
same objects appear to the eyeball.
