Thanks. If it is the circuit that causes the problem, then why do some tubes exhibit this and other don't. I have tubes that display the issue on any clock I own - admittedly, I don't believe I have any from you. Michail Wilson 206-920-6312

If it appears or not depends to the mercury amount in the tube and the Ucc voltage level. That's all. You also can fade in and out the blue spot if you like... no problem. When I have time I take a short video with my Nixie Tube Tester. My tester has an adjustable Ucc as you surely know, and by adjusting it the blue spot fades in, and out, and dissapears. This does not only work with IN-18 tubes, also with some other mercury filled tubes. Dieter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
