Thank you, they take about 4mA for FSD, however they rarely need to go right to the top - a little reservoir capacitor helps. The IN-13 has an extra lead, and has I guess like a pilot light at the bottom which helps the glow start at the right end. I've had a couple where the glow broke up, or did not reach the top of the tube, however you can burn them in just powered up for a couple of hours to fix that.
