[neonixie-l] Re: Simple drive circuit for single pulse dekatron
Revival of an old thread. Its a while back but I promised a vid of my nixie/deaktron/neon bargraph clock, just found it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVYEiCc19Bsfeature=youtu.be On 13 July, 15:14, dr pepper seaking.helicopt...@gmail.com wrote: Yes I could use something like a 4094 or similar, a few passives would be less room however, depending what values I'd need. I spose I'd like to get it working and see if its a better method, one bonus is the display boards would be nothing but passives without usng the shift reg.

That looks like an really interesting clock! Do you have any pictures or video?

I think I allready posted a pic, didnt get any replies, at the moment its a few tubes screwed to a piece of wood so I spose it doent create any inspirations. I'll see if I've still got any pics of it. P.s. the clock is synced to the msf radio time signal. On 13 July, 14:05, kay486 luckyl...@gmail.com wrote: That looks like an really interesting clock!

I found the original thread from when I designed this clock. No wonder there wasnt much interest, the pics show a bench full of components connected up by crop clip leads, I can do better than that, I'll do a short video and post it it looks a little better now everythings fastened up in line. Getting married Wednsday so my shop is a dressmakers at the minute so might be few days. https://groups.google.com/group/neonixie-l/browse_thread/thread/299b26872385bcbc/55cd1a992152b3e1?hl=en-GBlnk=gstq=dr+pepper#55cd1a992152b3e1 On 13 July, 14:12, dr pepper seaking.helicopt...@gmail.com wrote: I think I allready posted a pic, didnt get any replies, at the moment its a few tubes screwed to a piece of wood so I spose it doent create any inspirations.
