The Chinese nixies QS-30 and SZ-8 also have short lifetimes of respectively 1000 and 500 hours per datasheet. In my experience they don't last very long indeed compared to tubes with mercury. Especially the one in the 10s of hours position in my clocks. It's a pity because they have a really beautiful orange glow.
