Ah, the old Soldapult. I have two of them. But for this I'd use a rework 
station. As others have said you want minimal heating time on those pins.

Hint. the Soldapult works better if you put a short piece of teflon tubing over 
the tip. I've used that trick for years.

That's exactly what I was thinking Jeff.  That's part of the reason I
didn't think tubes like that soldered into a board were worth much.
They're halfway ruined already and by the time you might get some tubes out
unscathed they'll most likely be not really in the best shape.  I've
considered getting a board preheater.  If I see a decent one used I might
pick one up.  The hot air pencil does wonders.  For really temp sensitive
electronics... boards are always usually preheated in a production
environment.

Thanks I appreciate other thoughts about stuff like this.  Unless it's a
tube I just gotta have I think I'll pass on stuff like that unless it goes
cheap.

You don't have many options.  Heating the pins of the tubes without heating the 
glass will stress the seals.  The pins weren't generally meant to be soldered, 
just don't leave the heat on too long.  In the good old days, the rework people 
actually heated the entire PCB from the bottom to recover parts and the removal 
is faster than doing it pin by pin. Jeff

[neonixie-l] Re: More crazy because of anime movie...

[gregebert]

Tugging on parts before they are properly unsoldered causes the most damage.

Use a suction-type desoldering tool (Edsyn Soldapult has been my favorite 
for almost 40 years now). First, apply a small amount of fresh solder as it 
will help heat the joint more uniformly. Then suck away as much molten 
solder as possible. Last step is to heat the wire with your soldering iron 
and wiggle it so it's not bonded anywhere.

If the PCB is good-quality with ample hole-clearance, the device will be 
completely loose.

NEVER pry a device off a board; you will break pins (and damage the PCB if 
that matters)

[neonixie-l] More crazy because of anime movie...

[Bill Notfaded]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/NIXIE-Tubes-Assembly-National-Electronics-NL-900-7-tubes-/254212409800

I bid early on the when it was less than 100$... The fact that the tubes are 
soldered to the board may not be good for them.  I'm not experienced with 
soldering tubes to boards... It's just not the method I would do I don't think.

Can you degass or hurt the tubes with heat on the pins?

Exactly mega props to Dalibor!  I'm determined to build another big tube clock

some of the old tubes too but at that kind of price you either gotta be able to

[Kevin A.]

Exactly. This is analogous to any other sort of rare item collecting. Why
would somebody pay $48 million for a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO? Not because
they're actually going to drive or enjoy it in a traditional sense. It's
just about one-upping all the other collectors. Personally I think it's
foolish, but for others its seems having bragging rights is a hobby and/or
measure of self esteem...

I guess it all depends upon whether or not you are a purist with unlimited 
money and patience. Auctions are so rare for these devices that it will 
take years to get a set of 6 for a clock.

The RZ568m (Dalibor's tube) is essentially the same height (50mm) vs 54mm 
for the CD27. For less than the cost of 1 CD27, you can get 6 RZ568's with 
a 10-year warranty.

[neonixie-l] tiny neons source for colon separators

[alb.001 alb.001]

 
  CAUTION high voltage information :
  If you look around for single-use cameras with flash tube on the upper front which are made for weddings etc - I find them at resale stores such as  Good Will or Salvation army etc.for a dollar  - I press and hold down the flash button on the front of the camera and if the ready light comes on in neon orange ( but not LED green or red),  then it contains a tiny neon lamp which can be removed after the outer shell of the camera is removed. If the camera is very old, the internal AA-battery may be discharged and no light comes on.  Watch out for the high voltage capacitor inside - it may have up to 330 volts across the terminals - I discharge with a screw driver and get a loud bang.  Do this discharge before any further handling of the flash board.

Just saw this myself. It's such a wonderful looking tube, but what a crazy 
price...

Re: [neonixie-l] Tube/bulbs for colon separators?

[Paul Andrews]

They don’t need AC. They will run off DC, but only one electrode will light up. 
Also, 60V will be either the maintenance voltage or the minimum strike voltage. 
You can think of them as small Nixie tubes, so you just need to calculate a 
suitable current limiting resistor, like you do for nixies.

[neonixie-l] Looking for book "Electronic clocks and watches" by Robbins in PDF-format.

[Dekatron42]

Does anyone have the book "Looking for book "Electronic clocks and watches" 
by Robbins as a PDF file and can share it with me?

I know I can buy the book from several places but with shipping and VAT it 
gets quite expensive to have shipped to me.
