A couple years ago I made one out of an Arduino Uno that used any of the
smaller Russian nixies like IN-2, IN-17, or IN-12 JUST for speedometer. It
plugged into the cigar lighter as a stand-along box. It was just for fun.
I dropped the software into github. AntiqueSounds/SpeedoNixie: Nixie
I have a pile of OG-9s. Hint-hint... :-)

Same here. Patience is a virtue these days more than ever. Fortunately, it

So we all have to swear on a pinky-pact that if any one of us lights one of

This is accurate and great detail. I believe it is simpler than you might
think. This is just a parallel interface (times two).
The work is done with the shifters and the data is pumped via a parallel
interface from the processor as in the original design.
I am just a software guy, but once I

Great. Let me know when you get this. These boards look luscious. It
looks like a parallel interface in, but the mapping of the pins would be
tedious without manual/schematics.

It is a parallel interface but it'll be interesting to try and reverse

Am I the only one who thinks the slot machine effect is much nicer to see
than this alternative? However, I am on-board if this actually helps
longevity.
The slot machine effect is usually what gets non-nixie folks excited about
the display. It's the "blinky-lights gets the attention" effect.
Wow! That IS sexy! I think this BEGS for a modern clone. IN-12's make it
an inexpensive option to clone.

That is an incredible find! And the box is amazing! I have never heard of
these. I searched and it went right to Grahame's wonderful trigger tube

going to either inspire me or give me nightmares. My guess is both.

This is one of many reasons I am in the process of creating these OFF from
CafePress. CafePress has thieves who run around and just sell your designs
on their site without any compensation. This, and the limitations of
Yes. I blame almost all of my relatively recent addictions to the mighty
Mr.ThreeNeurons.

susceptible to failure. I love my purple dekas,
I assume I am too late for one?
