That symbol tube is super cool, never seen a NIMO display anything other than numbers, must be orders of magnitude more rare than the normal ones Oh doh, I didn't realize those pictures where already mentioned in the thread On Monday 13 May 2024 at 17:47:11 UTC-4 ZY wrote:
I'm not sure what is going on in this site, I think the "seller" is just posting the tubes to show off instead of them being for sale, but there is a blue colored one pictured? The description seems to only mention green with numbers, green with symbols, and orange, so maybe the blue is just some photoshop work:

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.

Well, none of my green ones have the 'right' number on them either, so maybe they were all pre-production?
According to the datasheet, this tube should have the part/ordering number BA-0006-P27, though the tubes don’t actually get marked with that Hi Greg,
6000-93-0000 on the side. So no P number as I've seen on others.
Are there any markings, part numbers, etc that indicate this tube has a different phosphor ? I suspect it could be an ultra-rare engineering sample.
Most of the NIMO tubes I've seen, which isn't very many, have 31 in the part number (P31 phosphor), though I have seen two with '92' in the part number that have a yellowish tint mixed with the normal green. I wasn't able to find any phosphor designated P92.

I'm going to sell this Red NIMO tube. It's apparently unused (no phosphor burn at all) and all the digits work as you can see in the video. I'll be honest and upfront with everyone here, I'm looking for serious offers and will keep in mind that listing it on the bay incurs fees etc, so if interested, please send me an offer.
All the other used green NIMOs sold.
Best,
Nick
I won't be trying that test.... :) Sent from my iPhone That’s super cool! I wonder if it’s better at resisting burn in than the normal green phosphor. Bit speechless.... didn't know I had this, thought it was a regular green one.... On Thursday, April 6, 2023 at 2:18:52 PM UTC-7 jörg wrote:
I've programmed the PWM for the green-neon bulbs. The fading looks pretty okay for me. Same for the spacing of the bulbs.

I think these would fit nicely with the Nimo tubes.
The only problem is that these will work loose from vibration and thermal cycling. Use bayonet based bulbs instead. Trust me.
