[neonixie-l] Re: Jeff Thomas GPSII Clock

I *thought* about adding GPS to my most-recent clock, but the DS3231 chip I'm using is so doggone accurate I dont see the need. When daylight-savings started last month, I manually sync'd my clock to the time on my cellphone. A month later, it's still within a fraction of a second. I also

MOD-6 Well, it's wireless GPS to the clock. http://www.badnixie.com/BadNixie.com_Welcome.html Michail Wilson 206-920-6312 In a message dated 4/14/2016 3:41:07 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, ml.deni...@comcast.net writes: Is there anyone currently making completed or kit Nixie clocks

[neonixie-l] Jeff Thomas GPSII Clock

I've owned the gpsii clock for a number of years and built it from the kit. Lately, I've noticed that the GPS lock light never comes on. I thought that the GPS board and/or the antenna had failed after so many years. I got pretty worried as this is my most favorite Nixie clock. Some years

Re: [neonixie-l] PIxie tube 3D socket

Nice homebrew socket. I, too, am finalizing a 3D printer purchase-decision. Even though my first-print will be a nixie socket (imagine *that*), I plan to use a 3D printer for other purposes, so it's not really a cost-savings measure if I decided not to buy it. In my case, the ability to

Pretty watch and a slick layout. I'd hate to sell my original one to buy this one. Too many decisions... -- 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 an email to

HI All, In a couple of weeks, I'm going to be helping my nephew to assemble a 3D printer. One of the first projects I would like to use it for is to make some B9012 Pixie tube sockets. I've never used a 3D printer, so it is all new to me. The data sheet I have has a good mechanical drawing

[neonixie-l] Re: Cathode poisoning and tube's current flow

I had no luck trying to depoison 1 or 2 Burroughs 5031 tubes, even after several hours. I considered these tubes expendable and put so much current thru them that they got hot. Darn! I didn't measure it, though. I'm amazed how quickly you were able to depoison your tubes; I was expecting days

[neonixie-l] Cathode poisoning and tube's current flow

I've recently performed healing on cathode poisoned IN-18. I used the method of increasing the current (never more than 8mA, datasheet specifies it as max) to the point when all the parts of the digit light up and then letting it "bake" until the digit is evenly lit on nominal current of 4mA.
