Even the IN-13, with the extra "hold down" cathode, has problems after running continuously over a long period. One of my friends bought one of those kits, were the glow just grows, and shrinks, alternately. Its still working after about a couple of years. But in less than a year, it would no longer lock at one end, as its suppose to. The glow center, now sort of drifts toward the middle. It now grows and shrinks outward in both directions. Kinda cool, if you didn't know, how it was intended to work.
