After you've removed both tubes, I'm curious how both will bench-test. I still cant figure out how 2 would fail simultaneously.
Check with the clock's owner to see if 1 tube failed first, and they used it like that for awhile, and then the second tube failed later. If that's the scenario, there has to be a circuit-wise explanation for the second tube's failure. Perhaps excess (ie, 2X) current ? Maybe a bad batch of tubes (compare date-codes) ? I've only had 1 nixie actually fail on me, and it was due to a manufacturing defect (internal spot-weld broke). OK I lied, I had a bunch of IN-1's fail, but they dont count..... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
