Sorry for not writing about what I have checked, it was obvious to me..... I have checked the following:
*. There are no shorts between any pins except the heater connection which has a low resistance (can't remember right now though what it measured at but it consumes the current stated in the datasheet) *. There is Neon inside the envelope, and from what it looks when tested with a Plasma ball there is a lot of neon, like in a well filled Dekatron *. The heater works and glows *. The voltages on the control unit looks ok when tested with a Fluke 87V DMM and with both an old analogue HP 1740A and with a more modern Lecroy WaveAce 2014 /Martin On Monday, 8 May 2023 at 14:55:49 UTC+2 Yohan Park wrote: What have you checked to conclude "the tube seems to work just fine"? Perhaps too obvious but have you checked with a neon tester to see if there's still neon inside? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
