Re: [neonixie-l] Nixie tube at 300 000 V

2016-09-02 Thread Nick de Smith 
Some years back when I did a lot of Tesla Coil stuff, one of the standard 
things to do was light a fluorescent tube just by holding it near the topload.

I kept a bunch of cheap Chinese nixies with the coils for public demos. If you 
search YouTube for "Cambridge Teslathon" you might find some videos that we 
did, along with some of our more extreme stuff with thermite :)

[neonixie-l] Nixie tube at 300 000 V

I ran across this IN-18 page by Chris Gerekos:

If you think adding a blue LED glow to a nixie tube is cool, apparently this is 
how real men do it:
