Bought a pair of somewhat newer date, the regular eBay sellers have mostly become very greedy nowadays so a few new sellers are underbidding them - hope the new sellers deliver what they promise! /Martin On Saturday, 22 May 2021 at 12:40:15 UTC+2 Bill Notfaded wrote: Yeah it looks like the whole board is conformally coated Martin. I'm not sure I spelled that right?

Touching them they feel like a completely glued down part so I hope that snipping them off at the Nixie bottom and then desoldering them from the board will let me pull them out from the isolation tube and then thread the new pins into the tubes and soldering them back. I want to keep the bottom piece of the Nixie intact too, that piece is fastened with a screw under the Nixie so I can't reach that unless I crush the piece left from the Nixie bottom. /Martin On Tuesday, 18 May 2021 at 23:54:13 UTC+2 John Snow wrote: Are you going to remove the tube's legs from the plastic to re-use? If so, have you already tried or are they melted on?

I have checked eBay and some other places and asked several sellers but no one seems to have these datecodes with full length pins. I need full length pins due to the way the original Nixie was mounted, see photo below where the wires are threaded in plastic isolation tubes, and I really want to keep the original look. /Martin [https://groups.google.com/group/neonixie-l/attach/491eb962a5a63/Crushed-IN-8-2.jpg?part=0.1&view=1] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
