The power module you bought is a counterfeit one! Mr. Zeyuan Yan is the 
designer, who is also on this board.

The NCH6100HV has been replaced by a newer model, NCH6300HV, last December. 
Please see the link below for the genuine one.

Paul,

Yes, the tubes are in sockets for sure. It'll be easier to replace when 
needed.

Thank you for your support.

Not yet. Still under review by KS. Should go live soon. 

I’ll update the post then.

Richard,

Thank you for checking. The campaign was submitted for review a few days 
ago. It should go live later today or tomorrow.

I'll keep you in the loop.

2020-11-06 Thread Aiden Fang
Also want to add that, the SHUTDOWN pin on 6300 behaves the opposite way 
compared to 6100. On 6100, pulling SHDN down to LOW enables the HV output.

So on the new 6300, leaving the SHDN pin floating will keep the HV output 
in off state.

[neonixie-l] Re: Recommendations for a digital microscope for soldering etc.

2020-10-21 Thread Aiden Fang
Terry,

I have two digital microscopes for electronics, so here is my 2 cents.

For this type of work, you want to pay more attention to the "work 
distance". Most of the cheap microscopes require lens-object distance to be 
less than an inch,  which makes it impossible for soldering.

I've been using this one for years and am very happy with it. It's $238, a 
bit over your budget tho. It was $300 when I got it. 
You can not only do soldering under the scope, but you can also press 
buttons to take photos/videos directly saved to a microSD card, all without 
a computer. Super convenient.

Andonstar 5 inch Screen 1080P Digital Microscope HDMI Microscope 
https://www.amazon.com/Andonstar-Digital-Microscope-Soldering-ADSM302/dp/B076XYRCYM

My 2nd microscope is dedicated for SMD work, from AmScope. Almost a grand, 
but worth every penny if you need it.


Hope this helps.
Aiden
