Thank you for this detailed explaination, even though some is over my head.
Should I check the resistance between the two joined pins and one of the two pins on the other side? Could the over heating mosfet damage other components or will it simply fail? I want to be sure there are not other factors contributing to the problem like me installing the wrong resistor but I am fairly meticulous during assembly. I assume if something was really out of whack the HV supply would not run at all. The clock is functioning but the mosfet is getting warm, and I notice it is mostly when all the tubes are running at the same time. Since I will be giving some of these as gifts I want to make sure everything is right. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
