Re: [neonixie-l] Date codes on ETL GR10x tubes...

Hi What would the cost be per tube, used or NIB? Thanks Rob On 30 May 2023, at 17:40, 'Nick' via neonixie-l <neonixie-l@googlegroups.com> wrote: So here's the thing: I'm rationalising my rather large nixie collection over the next few months.... I don't need lots of every nixie. I'm starting with a stash of ETL GR10Gs in varying condition - one has a broken 7 internally, 3 others are "dark" to the point of ... just useable... another 10 are in "used but good to OK condition" and the rest are NIB. They're a strange, early, tube, needing a Va of 250VDC and an Ra of only 10K for most digits, but 18K2 for the "1" and 14K7 for the "7", i.e. the 1 & 7 also have cathode resistors... They have no Hg doping, so the life of the tube under controlled circumstances is only 5,000 hours... Early stuff. But they are a BEAUTIFUL tube... I mean, REALLY BEAUTIFUL (IMHO)... The date codes on them are just two characters, e.g. "OJ" or "RC" etc. Range of ETL logos too... Anyone have a decode table for these?
