Re: [neonixie-l] Re: What is this HV gadget?
just search on eBay for portable neon tester and you find the same item for around $14 Pharma Phil -- Original Message -- From: Terry S Date: June 28, 2020 at 7:03 PM I have one, I bought it for testing neon sign tubes. I leave it in my car so I can grab bargain neons as soon as they pop up on CL. I tried it on nixies, It works, but I did somehow manage to blow the decimal points off a couple of IN-14's when using it.

It's a bit shabbier than the much more expensive handheld Tesla coil we used in neon school but the price is hard to beat. Ordered.

I assume it's high-voltage+high-frequency intended to ionize gas in a tube being tested for leaks. More convenient than lugging your plasma globe around at swap meets, etc. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
