Interesting to look at the Millclock videos. Very strikingly similar to Dalibor's process and techniques. There may be room for an IN-18 type tube to come to market but the pin configuration is very different and the base is excessively tall. Dalibor matched the Z568 pinout so that existing designs could use either. His price is more in line with what a Z568 should sell for. The ZIN18 is almost twice the going rate for an IN-18. It's taken Dalibor about 5 years to master the QC issues and he is very transparent about the obstacles that he has overcome. I wonder how the Millclock startup will deal with the same physics. Having said that, I hope that we can see new nixie production at a good price point.

Six hours of manual labour per tube, on average. JensOn 2019-02-08 9:50 p.m., Thomas Kummer wrote:> It’d be nice to see some healthy competition on new nixies.
