Hi there, ive been wondering, how precise can you be when you drive those
tubes? Ive been thinking recently that they would make a really nice clock!
Having six or seven tubes next to each other. The thing i need to know is
if its possible with these tubes to have ten precisely given points.
Hi,
oh, I started reading myself into the topic in November, but I had
several difficulties on the way. I am currently writing down my
experiences so far, I will create a new section for that on my website,
but it will take another two weeks or so.
I have not managed to create a glow lampe
Ah i see, so thats why i havent found anything on your site. The good
thing, i guess, is that you already have the neon somewhat sorted out. How
much did the neon cost you?

Neon is quite expensive; about 50EUR for 12 liters. It is a pressurized
bottle at 12bar, so it almost looks like a can of hair spray ;-)
The pressure regulator is quite espensive, though, 130EUR. But the good
thing is you only need to buy that once.

Yea, i know ist expensive so i wanted to know how much you eventually payed

About the neon, I am in touch with a salesman from Messer group, he offered
me probably the same bottle - Cangas 1l 12 bar bottle, 12 litres of neon,
50 eur + VAT. They offer pressure regulator what can be evacuated for
200eur... and simple one for 100 eur.. Are you sure You will be able to use

You should be able to do better than that if you don't need that much neon.

Nice solution, but I am afraid I would destroy the flask and let the neon
go out ;-) If I were from US I would try it, but because I am from EU where
we have nothing like this or if we have, it is several times the price in
US, I will use a cangas bottle :-(
The solution with magnet is very nice!
The old group had 2209 members going way back (2002 or so). Many (most)
were passive/defunct.
I had the choice of inviting all the members of the old group back again
(we have their email addresses) but it would have been a pain and so we
took it as an opportunity to cleanse the list to only

Wow!!! That's about three times what it costs here. Your description

Hi,
Click on the neon link. I buy in the 400 liter D1 size disposable
tank. That's essentially a lifetime supply in my shop. Inert
compressed gas can be shipped via the postal service so it might pay
you to order it from the US and have it mailed.
thanks for the link! But I seriously doubt
Hello Everyone,
Wondering if anyone could tell me the best way to remove the red coating on
the tubes?
I purchased some Tesla ZM1082T's with back printing. I want to make sure to
get the red coating off without destroying the back printing.
These tubes were hard to track down and I don't want to
Wondering if anyone could tell me the best way to remove the red coating on

The usual way is to soak them in warm-hot water, the coating peels off nicely
after a few minutes.

Sounds good.
The Tesla tubes are the reverse of that. So my hope is that the water will
only remove the red.
I will find out soon enough and post the results.

My first instinct would be to think not, as it is just too easy to do

do that, and then proceed with caution. Order small quantities and or
small monetary amounts first. See if he will list on Ebay where you will

Actually, I have dealt with him before as well with great results.
I don't like to vouch for anyone, so can't for him, but I did not have an
issue.
If you were thinking of ordering, then why not ask Dieter or Juergen. If
they say good, then you are pretty assured to have no issue.

What is the reason to remove the coating that is just applied to enhance the
contrast and visibility of the signs ?
As far as I can see the guts stay visible, so that wouldn't be the
problem...

Hi,
They had no problem shipping to me via USPS. And when several of us
went in and split a tank of Xenon, I had no problem at all shipping
via USPS. I had called ahead to ask. At the counter, the clerk put an
Inert Compressed Gas label on the box and took it. No HAZMAT fee
like UPS wanted.
Thank you.
That was very helpful.

It all depends on how it is
The length of the glowing portion of these bargraph tubes is fairly
proportional to the input current. I personally like the IN-13 better, on
two points. (1) Lower full scale current. Only 4mA. The IN-9 is much
higher. (2) it has a 3rd electrode, which usually locks the glow to one
side. 10
