Has anyone noticed the eBay offerings of HUGE mAH banks? 50,000, 100,000,
33 etc ! One listing says the capacity is based on “theoretical maximum ”
- a new theory perhaps?
They are the same size and weight as the smaller ones. There are teardowns on
the web and youtube showing the
#1 Make sure you are purchasing new units from a reputable supplier; there
are fake parts out there that are poor quality. Never re-use salvaged
electrolytics.
#2 Heat will shorten the life of any electrolytic; it only takes a few
well-placed vent holes to keep things cool.
#3 Not all
I'll gladly help but should mention that I use the Anker ones from the US and

I have a Google Pixel 2 phone (USB C) and the Anker bricks charge at the
fastest (full USB C) rate.

Thanks Tomasz, that's a good suggestion! I added it to the ebay search
list.
If anyone has any alternative sources for purchasing, or wants to sell any,
please share :)

Hi, there,
I'm Al, from the States. I've been lurking around here for a few months,
but thought to introduce myself. I'm certainly no electrical engineer, but
I fell in love early with vacuum tubes of all shapes and sizes. I've messed
with Nixies, Boroughs, Magic Eyes, Dekatrons, the list goes
I suspect folks just don't know about communities like this, and feel a
certain pressure to pick up certain tubes from the only sources they are
aware of aka Ebay

You don't need to go all the across the ocean. I bought a 10,000mAh power bank, USB rechargeable with battery status indicator for about $15 from a store in Toronto.. It was a promotional product for intuit QuickBooks. No brand name on it but it has an item number 7121-18WH on the back.
It’s ironic there are actually fewer 5971’s than 7971’s. Yet, the 7971 goes for
absurd prices due to size. The 7971 is actually a really common tube. I suspect
the 7971 is the Tulip Mania of DIY electronics. It’s a bubble and it will pop
eventually, if my suspension is true.

Hello Nixie friends,
This is a bit of an off-topic thing, but I finally caved and realized
that I need a USB power bank because my phone runs out of battery too
quickly when I travel. I found this nice-looking power bank from
Duracell here:
Dolam LC-631 tubes? They are slightly taller and slimmer than other B13B
socket tubes and they come with a smooth top.

This is the Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor I had in mind in my suggestion earlier
in the thread, datasheet impedance looks suitable, and I suspect its life will
be much longer than an electrolytic. Even though it’s an SMD part, it should be
able to easily be soldered in place of the electro. I’m
Holy S&*t.

I did notice there's only 5. Not practical for most if our clocks. I was
thinking of making a seven digit with user selectable 10ths of seconds?
Too much movement? What do you think?

I still haven't posted mine, but I might to just post at those type of prices.
My only question is: Why 5? Not 4 or 6.

Way too much! Maybe pros like Dalibor will make a special model just for
us "crazies"? Meanwhile, I'll continue on 3 separate clock projects,
IN-12, B-5750S and ZM1005. Sure they are smaller but fine looking tubes.

You guys have made me curious now about the other 'good' clock I have of
his. I'm going to open it up and see if there are any other differences
other than the obvious being tube board I used vs. the 'stock' one.

The short lifetime ratings of electrolytics have always worried me. 8,000
hours? That’s about 1 year, though that is at rated operating conditions. This
article discusses dressing of lifespan:
Couldn't you wire in a small HV PSU module instead, and bypass the
circuitry for that one?
Not sure that it would necessarily have a better lifespan (depending on who
made it...)
