Personally I do not see the value either. They are symbol tubes, not digits like the IN-12 which they are plug compatible with. I bought ten NOS IN-15A for $18 and ten NOS IN-15B for $16 several years ago just because they were so cheap and figured I might have some fun with them. As they are plug compatible with the IN-12, I found it amusing to swap an IN-15 A or B into a Chinese single digit IN-12 clock and watch it cycle through the symbols as it counts seconds. That is about the only thing I could find them useful for. Granted with an IN-15A you can spell words made up of the letters M, P, k, m, n and "u" (mu) and with the IN-15B the letters A, F, H, P, V and W (reminds me of the end of Wheel of Fortune when you chose a bunch of letters and have no idea what the phrase is for the grand prize).
$20/each is a crazy price for a non-numeric tube IMHO. On Saturday, March 21, 2026 at 2:00:46 AM UTC-4 Michail Wilson wrote: > They are IN-15. I don’t see how that is a deal.
