I made a wristwatch with a similar display (SP-151). Segment current is 350uA, and requires about 180V to ionize.
The real nuisance with these displays is making a PCB footprint (I had to use a digital caliper to measure X-Y coordinates of every pin) and fitting the bloody thing into the board. They are nice displays; mine sat unused for over 40 years and ironically what saved it was the fact that the pins were not on a standard 0.1 in grid pattern. Otherwise I would have recklessly soldered it as a teenager and probably ruined it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
