Hi all. Some news to update.
I have made a new IN18 sample to test. I called the new tube "IN18s", it have same size as Russia IN18, the same pinout, it means you can install to your IN18 clock directly!! It has beautiful numbers, I install Z566M's number inside the IN18s. it looks very clear and bright. Beside, I use some new technology, now you can see the backplate is totally dark in front view, no any reflect, In the back of the plate, it shows like a mirror ! I have upload a video in Youtube. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Y9Buvf8HThc Here are some pictures. If you have any advice, please tell me, if possible I will update it in next version.
