Instead of using just one cathode as anode, if you're using it for the 10s of hours, you can hook up all the remaining 7 cathodes to be anodes. I did this in one of my clocks. The striking voltage is still slightly higher, but it works quite well. mandag den 20. marts 2023 kl. 19.50.04 UTC+1 skrev Michail Wilson:
