* Hi, I’d like to share my project with you, a nixie tube kitchen timer.I am really late coming into the nixie world -- I got my first nixie tubes last year, just by a coincidence.**I thought I wanted something that I can type numbers into nixies, and decided to make a replacement for my failing old kitchen timer.For uses in kitchen, I made it somewhat waterproof so that I can touch it with my hands wet.**I made an enclosure that covers tubes and the PCB, a hang hole on the back, and used a membrane keypad.This design works well, and the timer has been in my everyday use in my kitchen since I made it in last December, without any failure.Nixie tubes are very good in a timer, it’s a lot easier to read than 7-segment displays.It was my first time making something with nixie tubes and high voltages, and information in neonixie-l group helped me very much. I exhibited my timer at a convention in Tokyo and it got more positive responses than I had expected, so I thought I should feed it back here. Thanks everyone!I made a web page about my kitchen timer here: http://q61.org/en/nixietmr/It has a longer version of the story, pictures and a video, as well as tech docs such as schematics.Thanks again, ko * <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-zxncMDw_1yo/VwFGAwlypqI/AAAAAAAAAAk/9X3WJWsSaicvCXIH7qcz3-izA0XoUHohg/s1600/kitchen_512w.jpg> --You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
