Thank you all for your replies! Dieter, thank you both for providing the original datasheet, and for your suggestion - increasing the voltage seems to have done the trick. Jonas's kit suggests using 160v which has worked fine for all the Russian tubes (rated at 170v), but at 190v I seem to get reliable illumination of these tubes.
I guess I should have just tried! But again, I'm not that well up on the electronics side - I wasn't sure what kind of voltage is safe for me and/or the tubes, didn't want to blow anything up! > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
