The battery backs up the time, not the settings. If you lose power you have to 
reset the 12/24 hour display mode, auto shutoff and background color settings.

Robert -- I haven't installed a battery yet. Does the battery back up the 
time and settings? 
Yes setting the time and backlight is rather twisted.

I have one of those that I bought two years ago. Relatively easy to 
assemble I believe socket pins were included. Setting the clock is annoying 
though.

And did they include socket pins?

I'm buying this as a gift as well.

[neonixie-l] Re: Anyone purchased one of these clocks?

[gregebert]

I dont know how anyone could sell it for so cheap; the components cost more 
than 25USD. Yet, there it is.
I bought a similarly-cheap edge-lit clock last year (well, OK 38USD 
including shipping, and it's 6 digits). It's kept accurate time and puts on 
quite a light-show.

>From the pictures I would say that it does use pin sockets therefore I

The evidence being that A) - you can just see them in the top view of the 
clock and B) the holes on the PCB look too small for the pins on IN-12 
tubes.

... though for $25.38 including shipping - who knows what you'll end up 
with!

For my money - if I was looking for a pre manufactured board then I would 
look no further than here: https://www.nixieclock.biz/StoreMNC6.html

OK, no case, 6 digits and not IN-12 but you are getting a feature rich well 
designed clock from a respected supplier. He does have a kit for 4 digits 
of IN-12 but you would need to assemble that yourself.
