Jonathan, I'm going to hold off a bit on selling them. The more I look at the clock on the decadecounter web site, the closer it resembles the single digit Nixie or VFD clocks I've built in the past. I'm going to try that basic circuit, and see what I can do with a 555-based switchmode supply. It would seem I might be able to reverse the diode as part of the -300 supply. Joe, N6DGY
