That purple glow or haze is a result of the mercury that is put in Nixie
tubes to make them live longer. It is normal.

No blue dot...this is a very small blue glow similar to a bottom of a
flame.... it outlines the nixie wire that glows orange. It's only on the

My In-12 Nixie clock which has a strange strobe effect on 3 of the tubes
from https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/neonixie-l/YcmrKD52IXg are
starting to emit a small blue glow color from those tubes...is that a
typical sign that they are starting to go bad?
