Gadzooks that has a crazy number of electrodes; I'm trying to understand what inspired the Soviets to develop this instead of a segmented nixie. It's definitely an interesting device, but it has a lot of disadvantages in terms of manufacturing complexity. Does anyone know if there is some kind

This project looks like the case design is about 1/4 complete. The delivery promise of December 2017 sounds fanciful. On Nov 8, 2017 1:54 PM, "Nicholas Stock" wrote: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1989465642/moonracer- by-millclock-futuristic-steampunk-nixie Just

Here's a contact e-mail for Sergey who sold me several sets of ITS1 tubes: Sergey Alekseev I've confirmed that he has a fair number of ITS1A tubes in stock. These are probably a mix of the "A" and "B" versions, and also likely a mix of white and pink washers. You will have to ask him for

Does anyone know the life expectancy of the ITS-1 ? Given the high cost and rarity, I'm reluctant to make a clock with them. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send

Yes. It was the power supply that was my concern with this. But now, I have some ideas! I'm not sure if that is a good thing, but let's see if I can at least get the voltages I need. On Wednesday, November 8, 2017 at 5:15:58 PM UTC-5, Dekatron42 wrote: > > They are quite easy to drive, have a

[neonixie-l] Re: threeneuron's Dekatron clock

Subcathode is the literal translation of the Russian electrode designation ' подкатод' which is how they refer to guide or transfer electrodes. Since the OG8 is a directional cathode tube, it only has a single transfer electrode rather than the pair of guide electrodes that you'd find on (eg)

Re: [neonixie-l] ITS1-A on eBay

They are quite easy to drive, have a look at a minimalistic clock here: https://radiokot.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1916607#p1916607 there is s full schematic and also the hex code for the processor. When I found this design I wrote about it over at TubeClockDB here:

Thank you all for the replies and welcomes, I forgot how to find this group again after my computer had a Chernobyl event. But found it again at last ! Given that this tube is such a bugger to get going and it is not much use to me for a clock. I will be selling the one's I have on ebay. I
