I dont think IEE got their NIMO tubes into volume production, and I've never seen any photos of a real product using them. There is a photo of some kind of gizmo in the IEE sales literature, but that was probably a mockup. It's unfortunate that all the engineering effort and talent that went into their creation didn't get the recognition it deserved. Had they appeared 20 years earlier, perhaps nixie tubes would have been the rarities instead of NIMOs.
