Hi,

Do You have any info about your progress on your site?

I am currently training my glasswork "skills", which is really a lot of work, so this eats up all my spare time at the moment. I will have more time in the next months, so for me it will take some more time, sadly. Hence, there is nothing to report for my website as of now :-(

I have a plan, though, for a simple glow lamp with two cathodes that I will be able to build with my primitive tools and especially primitive burners. Let's see :-)

    Hi folks,

    the only tube with a flashed getter I know of is the XN-1:
    http://www.tube-tester.com/sites/nixie/data/XN1/XN1.htm

    To be honest: I will not use getters at the moment. There is so
    much glasswork to figure out for me, that is the part that I will
    focus on in the next months. :-)

    Hi Dylan,

    flashed getters are not used in nixies (I havent seen it at
    least), just some VFD tube use flashed getters. Flashed getters
    leave a coating on a glass envelope of the tube - we don't want
    that. I think that kind of getter needs only initial activation
    by heat which could be done by induction heating as well as in
    the case of flashed getters. Look to IN-14 nixie, there is
    exactly the same pellet.

    The only matter to solve will be attaching the pellet to a wire,
    but I think that will be possible to do by spot welding -
    inspired by IN-14.

    Thanks,

    Dalibor

        Hey Dalibor and others-
           I don't feel that these are the right getters for nixie tubes.
           The literature lists them as thermally active- they only
        absorb if you put them somewhere hot.
           Many styles of getters are made this way; most tubes do
        run quite hot, beacuse of the filaments..

           There isn't anywhere in a nixie tube that is constantly
        100C-200C. (That's part of the magic of nixies, of course)

           You really want some flashed barium getters; they absorb
        gasses at any temperature.

           -Dylan

            Hello guys,

            I've got an offer on getters, tech info attached.. the
            price is approx. 5pcs/1 eur. Is anyone interested in it?
            I will place an order in several weeks, I may send some
            pieces sealed in argon filled tube..
