I agree with Paul. We need a pinned thread about this. Also Paul I'd be willing to part with some tubes for one of your single tube clocks maybe with some tube boards but I can order them since you've made them open source basically. I love your single tube clock. It's really f'in cool stuff! Your website is super cool too! I can't tell you how many times I've googled for some weird tube and guess who's got them on his site? Hehe props. It's nice when some of us can be references for others. I wish I had more time but work is crazy busy right now. I got to Scottsdale Barrett Jackson this past week on first day and last... I love cars but I think neon is even bigger fancy. I haven't unboxed it yet but I brought that 8 tube 7971 clock and wanna see how it's made. It might be a one off since no one really recognized it. I'm kinda psyched. I preordered a big 3D resin printer called Elegoo Saturn during their Kickstarter where they raised over 4M. I'm hoping I can make some larger nixie tube cases and also other stuff like missing feet for test gear etc. The resolution is legit. Unlike many 3D printers you really can't see the layers and it's finally something you can afford to buy. There was a time when eBay was just too many things to consider but it seems these days it's look and see if anything neat comes up. I bought a couple Heathkit GC-1005's with a couple spare sets of SP-352 this week. That's my buys this week. I thought $100 each was great price for the clocks in mint condition? The Babcock Beckman were 60$ for set of 3 working. The clocks aren't flickering either.

Whatever voltage you get across the tube/bulb when it's operating at the proper current is not important. Basically, "it is what it is". This is why I use current-regulation in all of my designs. The operating current must be high enough to prevent cathode poisoning, and low enough not to cause destruction (which I assume sputtering is the dominant mechanism). The better tube manufacturers, such as Burroughs and Dalibor Farny, publish minimum and maximum current in their datasheets; if typical is not specified then average the min and max values and use that. The anode-supply voltage must be higher than the striking voltage, and should be a bit higher to allow for aging effects. It's OK to use even higher voltage for the anode, but it just wastes energy. Even if you dont use a current regulator, using a higher anode supply and a larger anode resistor will approximate the same basic behavior. > On Saturday, March 20, 2021 at 9:45:25 PM UTC-7 Richard Scales wrote: > Hello, > Does anyone here have any tested data on the maintaining voltage and > current requirements for these panaplex displays? > > Tube-Tester suggests 150V and 0.35mA - which for a 170V supply suggests > (170-150)/0.35 K = about 56K.
