Hi ! Really interesting and great work. Looks really good and its a „want to have“. Would be interested in pcb and code too , if possible a kit too. Thank you. Michail Wilson schrieb am Samstag, 4. März 2023 um 15:11:01 UTC+1: > I am very interested as well. > > > > Would love to have the

The picture above confirms my suspicion that more-frequently-changing digits will die first. The dying hours tube is still a mystery to me; maybe it was previously used ? I learned about this as a kid when I would do stupid things like turning my room light on-and-off to annoy others. Yeah, my

I am very interested as well. Would love to have the code and pcb design and even a kit. I read through the posts, but didn’t see anything other than the video. Thumbs up on it too.  Michail Wilson 206-920-6312 From: neonixie-l@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of jörg Sent: Saturday, March

Hi Chris, The numitrons are driven by a 4511 decoder, and according to their data sheets the max. output at that voltage is 4.1 V, so that is well within specification for the tube. Yes, I agree, lowering the voltage even further should increase lifespan. Bill v From:

@jörg, No, I have not yet built anything. Just "scoping" out where this will take me. On Sat, Mar 4, 2023 at 5:14 AM jörg wrote: > @Jon, > yes, I will share the code. I have moved it to the VS Code IDE with > PlatformIO. I do not like the Arduino IDE much. It should run on david's > hardware,

Hi, While i am not sure for the IV9 numitrons have a look at the DA2300 lifetime expectancy, [image: https://www.dos4ever.com/numitron/lifenew.gif] Basically reducing the voltage increases the life expectancy exponentially. So i usually run my numitrons at 4.5V or lower and have had no

Hello, what transformer do you use for the power supply? I'm about to build that clock and I was thinking of winding my own transformer but if an off the shelf version can be used that's easier. Thank you.  Original message From: jörg Date: 04/03/2023 12:14 (GMT+00:00) To:

@Jon, yes, I will share the code. I have moved it to the VS Code IDE with PlatformIO. I do not like the Arduino IDE much. It should run on david's hardware, too. Do yo you have build the hardware already? On Friday, March 3, 2023 at 5:12:46 AM UTC+1 David Forbes wrote: > I was able to change
