OK... I'll play... First, I'm also a fan of Marcin's testers and have been very appreciative of his excellent customer support! The design below came about following a conversation with Jeff W... My thanks to him for the impetus to do (overdo?) the project! I also find built-in meters to be

I used a small good digital ammeter 0-20mA made by Murata, DCA-20PC but it costs about 60 EUR... Because I'm not professional in electronics I had problems with the power supply of the digital voltmeter and ammeter, I tried to use only 1 power supply and I destroyed the first ammeter, it needs

For current, there aren't any 20mA meters that I could find, but there are plenty of 0-20V meters, so just measure the voltage-drop across a 1K / 1% (or better) resistor. Just be careful to use at least a 1/2W resistor; recommend 1W to reduce self-heating, which affects the accuracy. I went

Subject: [neonixie-l] Re: Nixie Tester & Healer for IN18 Nixie Tubes Thank you Peter. I tried to add the digital meters but I was not satisfied with the result. Now I'm thinking about analog voltmeter and ammeter. These meters better fit with the retro casing. W dniu poniedziałek

I appreciate your products very much.I have the old device and added an external socket for IN-18 together with small amper- and voltmeter. Because I'm not so good in mechanics it doesen't look so nice but it works. A device with internal mA and V display made by you would be the non plus
