Flashes getters aren't good for nixie tubes because barium mirror
exchange mercury vapours to another gases. That's why.
Best regards

Thats exactly what I mean, I will use flashed getter for testing - I
will disassemble some old TV tube as Ron suggested. But I want to use
right getter later..
Do You have any info about your progress on your site?

Hi folks,
the only tube with a flashed getter I know of is the XN-1:
http://www.tube-tester.com/sites/nixie/data/XN1/XN1.htm
To be honest: I will not use getters at the moment. There is so
much glasswork to figure out for me, that is the part that I will
focus on in the next months. :-)

Hi Dylan,
flashed getters are not used in nixies (I havent seen it at
least), just some VFD tube use flashed getters. Flashed getters
leave a coating on a glass envelope of the tube - we don't want
that. I think that kind of getter needs only initial activation
by heat which could be done by induction heating as well as in
the case of flashed getters. Look to IN-14 nixie, there is
exactly the same pellet.
The only matter to solve will be attaching the pellet to a wire,
but I think that will be possible to do by spot welding -
inspired by IN-14.
Thanks,
Dalibor

Hey Dalibor and others-
I don't feel that these are the right getters for nixie tubes.
The literature lists them as thermally active- they only
absorb if you put them somewhere hot.
Many styles of getters are made this way; most tubes do
run quite hot, beacuse of the filaments..
There isn't anywhere in a nixie tube that is constantly
100C-200C. (That's part of the magic of nixies, of course)
You really want some flashed barium getters; they absorb
gasses at any temperature.

Hello guys,
I've got an offer on getters, tech info attached.. the
price is approx. 5pcs/1 eur. Is anyone interested in it?
I will place an order in several weeks, I may send some
pieces sealed in argon filled tube..
