Hey! Nice rythm... it's good to see that neon relaxation oscillators have not been forgotten fon non-visual uses. One detail that you certainly will have to take into account is that many trigger tubes used Kr-85 (a Krypton isotope) to guarantee triggering in darkness, and that Kr-85 is now long gone inert. So... just keep those tubes illuminated (the blue LEDs you used seem to be fine for that task) and they will work without a hitch. Otherwise you risk long delays until a photon helps the ionization to happen. Good luck with that and keep posting!
