The IEE parts use a common "compactron" base. The odd connection, is that anode "nib", at the side. I'm not going to use a socket, for the finished version, and the anode will be connected by way of a cushioned clamp, along the lines that Fran used (in the original video). I don't know what those XM1000s use, but it could be pure unobtanium. I'm pondering, a single digit nixie clock kit, which will use most of the same code. Also will be adding a mod in the instructions, to adapt it to these tubes. Instead of adding an RTC to the board, I'll leave a connector that will allow plugging in an Arduino RTC "breakout" board: <http://www.tinyosshop.com/image/cache/data/ARDUINO/3-800x800.JPG> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
