I also use a small plasma globe. They are only $8 shipped on ebay. Some even cheaper.
I wish I could find nixies at swap meets. Never have seen them, but I must just be at the wrong ones. I do have a spare globe in my car just in case.

I bought one of these a copuple of years ago. It seems to me it was a little cheaper than this, but not much (maybe $18 or so). I don't know what the original application of these is - I'm certain it wasn't to help a bunch of gray-beard Nixie collectors at swap meets - but it does work well for that purpose. ~~ Mark Moulding On Thursday, June 25, 2020 at 8:05:38 AM UTC-7, celzey11 wrote: Supposedly they were designed for testing neon sign components, a quick way to see if a tube failed or not in the field without powering the whole thing up. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
