[neonixie-l] Re: Enough air circulation for this Nixie clock on book shelf cabinet?
Are there any other holes in the case besides the bottom ? If so, you will get some convection air-current thru the case as long as the bottom vents aren't blocked. Most of the heat should be generated from the tubes. The '2' and '5' look a lot nicer on this clock than your previous one -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups neonixie-l group.

Re: [neonixie-l] 5 x CD27s on eBay...
Matt, you forgot about the B-7031, B-7032, B-7037, B-7038 (and their national Electronics versions), and the NL-934 (not sure if there is an equivalent Burroughs tube). All 50mm tubes ;-) Jens Am 30.09.2014 01:03, schrieb Matt: For the tube on the far right, how long does it take for tubes to darken this badly? http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/ODMwWDEzNjA=/z/~ywAAOSwGvhUKGl2/$_57.JPG At some point, artisan nixie tubes will be cheaper than some of the largest NOS tubes that rarely show up. Of course, to get a decent service life, either giver pills need to be found or created or there needs to be some other method for adding Hg vapor after the tube is sealed from the vacuum pump.

Not my auction either, but I know the seller, and he brought me these tubes to check out. I wired them up and created the composite photo to show all the digits evenly lit at 4mA. All the tubes are a little darkened, but it's very slight in the one on the left and most marked in the one on the right - I arranged them in order of darkening, left to right. It doesn't make much visible difference when the tubes are lit. I thought he might sell them one at a time, but I see he's selling them as a set. Price wise, I think he's going by the fact that Z568s seem to go for $400 and they are common as dirt by comparison.

They seem pretty up-front about the slight darkening on a couple of the tubes. Nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups neonixie-l group.

Thanks! No, other than the 3 back buttonsonly vents on the bottom. -Darin On Tuesday, September 30, 2014 1:26:54 AM UTC-5, gregebert wrote: Are there any other holes in the case besides the bottom ?
