Hi Martin,
That makes sense !
I am highly interested
Is there any possibility that I can get more information about the tester?
Schema and also about the difference in supply for the EZ10A and EZ10B
I would highly appreciate that.
Cheers,
eric

Great to here, it gives me a safe feeling.
Sadly there is no photo of the tester visible. May be you can try to send it as
an attachment instead of in the txt field. Perhaps the file size is too big?

Any experience with ELESTA EZ10 A and B dekatrons (7pin miniature size) in this
matter? These tubes have 13-pins and need special, ceramic, very hard to get
sockets.

Especially the EZ10B with hydrogen filling makes me frightened.

Back in the good old days when sockets were made by military suppliers,
they were designed well and made according to all the design details.
Later, these good sockets got copied by manufacturers who didn't understand
what details to copy, so they got progressively worse over the years.

I see. This is probably the killer detail.

just removal.
I've experienced
I guess it depends on the socket you’re using.
I’ve seen ceramic with floating pins just like the bakelite versions.
If the ceramic version is a tight fit, why not just loosen them up before you
insert the tube.
I’ve killed many IN-18 tubes not knowing the solid ceramic sockets I had put
that
