Has anyone had problems, notably cracking around nixie tube pins, using socket-pins soldered to a PCB, rather than using an actual tube socket ?
I'm doing my pcb design right now, and I'm hoping that I can avoid pin-stress if I put the socket pins on the tube, then solder in-place. I will not be physically switching tubes between sockets, though I may occasionally insert/remove a few times during final assembly. Actual sockets might be an option, but space is pretty tight. This clock has fourteen IN-18 tubes, so I want to protect my investment. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
