RE: [neonixie-l] loose-pin sockets

2017-04-01 Thread Tidak Ada 
It’s not the insertion of the tube that worries me, but the long term stress 
due to slight misalignment of the bushings. That concerns particular hydrogen 
and helium filled tubes. Keep in mind tubes like EZ10A and B have a very dense 
13 pin socket that needs narrow tolerances in alignment. It’s therefore not 
wise to use PCB-sockets, a floating wiring is better.

I do mine in 2-steps:

*   Low-insertion socket pins soldered to PC bpard
*   3D-printed collar that sets over the pins. It's mostly for aesthetic 
reasons, because the pins dont fit snugly into the collar. The collar certainly 
helps guide the tube into the socket. However, you should avoid 
plugging/unplugging unless necessary.

[neonixie-l] loose-pin sockets

2017-04-01 Thread JohnK 
What is the latest on low stress sockets?
3D printer ones coming along?

I am keen to hear from you all about the latest successes.

Anyone contemplating a ZIF style  - either rotate or slide locking etc?

John K
