Thanks for the additional color on these. I was debating on picking one up as a novelty, but may hold off now based on your comments. On Sun, Mar 11, 2018 at 3:44 PM, Dekatron42 wrote: > I've bought a few of these and other similar types for just RMB 25 from > China,

I agree on the pricing; it's not terrible. The only bummer is that they're mercury free. On Sun, Mar 11, 2018 at 2:43 PM, SWISSNIXIE - Jonathan F. < jfrech...@gmail.com> wrote: > These look nice, probably going to buy one. I would say the price is fair, > if they are so rare. Compared to what

Hmm,I think I also saw that post on the forum.The seller sold dozens of SZ-2 on these days.I think the seller bought them all? Meanwhile,I don't think it can be compared to other brands in the same class(>30mm).Beautiful digits,BUT Short life,rough shape,rough glass... They proved they can made

I've bought a few of these and other similar types for just RMB 25 from China, the digit height is only 33mm, I had the datasheet translated by a friend, it says so at the end of the datasheet and I can confirm it from the tubes I have. They are very fragile inside as the wires connecting the

These look nice, probably going to buy one. I would say the price is fair, if they are so rare. Compared to what people pay for German/USA/Japan Nixies >30mm digits80$seems fair for a so rare tube. I wonder if the seller has more tube types :) -- You received this message because you are

Hi - welcome to the group. Are you sure this isn't a driver fault or an issue with contamination on the PCB causing leakage? I have both NOS and ex-equipment MG-17Gs, but I am 3,500 miles from my storeroom! If you can wait until April, I can certainly help with spare tubes. Cheers Nick --
