I'd like to be able to periodically switch off my nixies in order to extend their lifespan. I have a non-multiplexed direct-drive circuit with 74141s driving the nixies. I've been wondering - is it enough to keep the 74141s switched off, or do I need to build in a circuit that will remove the anode voltage?
Normally I would just leave the anodes powered and there should be no current flowing, but nixies and high voltages are not something I understand very well. --J. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
