Exactly as Benoit said - just decrease the current through the digit so the
glow disappears. Keep it running for days in that configuration, and make
sure the glow on the lead doesn't come back. The sputtered metal from the
digit traps impurities from the gas and make a thin layer on the lead,

Hi!
8k2 value is proven and totally safe when used with 170-180V DC. Recently I
updated the specification for our tubes and decreased the minimum current
from 5mA to 4.5mA. The currents are different for every digit anyway - we
need to specify this as well for the customers who build the
And it has a great story behind it - explaining the 10th of a second
position.. And it is quite rare - one of the few nixie clocks that were
designed in the nixie tube era..
Nice post about it here:

Hi Dalibor,
Thanks. I'm surprised you cannot access the site, no issues here from
reading about sputtering two days ago, (Weston, 1968),
there were mentioned some experiments for measuring the deposit
thickness, have You already read it?
Bye!

It is too small for me, I would not be able to make it ;-) Too delicate work ;-)

Exactly, and i think that if you would want to buy it only for its
unctionality, not for the historic value. Dalibor could make it chaper :)

Thanks! Be sure every cent goes back to nixie stuff! Thanks You all
guys for support!

Hi guys, thanks for suggestions. I agree that two separate rows of
6pin header are the best.. Easy to make and it would provide good
stability to tubes. Common DIP package is too small to fix quite heavy
tube on a place, but it would be elegant solution!

Hello all!
The pipes on the back are there just for design purposes - this is a
glass art contest, so I decided to add some extra glass stuff here ;-)
I planned to make a anode wire going through the pipe, but it turned
out to be pretty complicated and didnt look much well.

Hello guys,
thanks for support, it is very good motivation! I am actually working
all the day on that stuff!
Nicholas Stock: Once I manage those small 5cm digit tubes (and get
some cash), I am going to improve my
hole that is around 4mm wide.
Another thing - is there anyone who saw a tube that would have
sputtered metal layer in front of the anode grid?
What do You think guys?

Hi Nick, thanks for following up on this.
Yes, there are a couple
goes to show what somebody smart and determined can
achieve.
Now, any chance we can see one of these tubes with an argon fill? Just love
the idea of a genuine purple nixie...
Jon.

by this directive, do You know any closer information?
That would be serious obstacle in producing real nixie tubes..
Thanks,

I guess that nixie tube could be considered as other lamps not
specifically mentioned in this Annex (number 4), what so You think
guys?

Hi Alex,
I hope You will share results of your experiments! ;-)

Hi Nick,
I am doing some experimental work on the subject of lifespan due to
sputtering.
Could you provide the full reference, including if possible a chapter
:-D Thanks Tim!
There is so many possibilites and custom font is definitely one I will
try. I will first produce a batch of 100 tubes (z568m style) and then
I will work on my own design..

The neat thing is that if nixie tube production becomes continuous again,
we will not need the long life that mercury provides.

I guess the price of the z568m-like tube will be under $200.

Hi Dalibor,
Are you calculated cost of manufacture of tubes?
Best
of zinc is small enough. Zinc starts to cover the
glass envelope at pressure of 10-6 torr and temperature of 200C, conditions
during the bakeout process.

Beautiful work Dalibor!
What is the size of it? Looks like IN-18 size?
Can't wait to see them light up
