I had no luck trying to depoison 1 or 2 Burroughs 5031 tubes, even after several hours. I considered these tubes expendable and put so much current thru them that they got hot. Darn! I didn't measure it, though.
I'm amazed how quickly you were able to depoison your tubes; I was expecting days or even weeks. Did you purchase your tubes in this condition, or did it occur while they were in your project? I'm curious about the conditions and timeframe that cause poisoning. My 14-digit clock has several static digits, so I run a 1-hour depoisoning every night; maybe it's overkill ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
