My interest however is powering single digit IN-18 clocks from USB. The nixie only requires 1.2W typical. Your NCH6100HV is a bit pricey and overkill for my application. It would be nice if you could designed a low power version that is less expensive. And yes, I do like option to measure/control/shutdown HV from micro.
