Wow.  Never thought they would have lasted as long as they did

It begs the question, do they taste like burnt marshmallows?

My vote for worst-nixie is the IN-1...but they do redeem themselves for a few 
seconds when you plop them into a microwave oven:

IN2 are the worst. I hope you have spares Richard as the failure rate is pretty 
high... no Hg.

I have a few clocks using them including my own 6 tube variant, they look just 
fine.

I've just made an IN-2 version of the same clock, they are not quite so clear 
IMHO.

Some time ago, I built a series of calculators with different nixie types. The 
version with the IN-17 tubes is definitively my favorite. I'm not a big fan of 
LED backlighting, but it looks great with the IN-17s. The calculator has been 
running 24/7 on my desk since April 2023 (mainly in clock mode with PIR) and 
none of the 14 tubes have failed so far.

These are very tiny top view wire ended nixies.
Lit one up for the first time last night.   Very pleased to see that this
tube has a real 2 and a real 5!

Looks bright and clear.  Runs at around 1.2 mA at 170 volts using 30k anode 
resistor.

I'd like to hear everyone's opinion and experience with the IN-17 tube.

Any ideas or comments?     Thanks.   -Chuck
