Did any of you hear about IN-23 tubes? And there is somebody selling them:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/IN-23-X-1pcs-23-NEW-NIXIE-RAREST-LIMITED-EDITION-TUBES-NOS-FREE-SHIPPING-/261050848775
Seems that the price quickly raised from 35USD per two to 48USD for each.

Ahhh yes, they smell blood in the water...
Just like the IN-18's; the cartel has fixed their prices even though nobody
appears to be paying. Well, maybe Dieter.

Hi,
I really love it when this kind of thing happens :-))) A new Russian
Nixie tube :-) I only bought one, they are very pricy.

It does seem over the last couple of years many sellers have realised
they have us by the shorts as they control a limited supply.

Seriously: The coolest thing I have ever seen with Nixie tubes. How do
you drive the tubes?

Hi all,
Hope you won't mind me spamming this here but I've finally completed
something nixie-based.
I have a bad habit of building prototypes only to add to an ever-
growing list of 'features'
How you'd ever consider that 'spamming' is beyond me...;-) what a great and
unique way to use all those nixie tubes that nobody has a use for in a
clock! Presumably the tubes are driven inductively, but how do you use each
symbol to denote the chess piece...just utilize that pin on the underside
Wow, I simply don't understand! As Jens said, I haven't better nixie
project!
Do You have some technical info on your site?

This is absolutely amazing! How did you managed to power the tubes without
any risk?

Thank you :)
They're driven inductively using an array of 64 tuned primaries and a
secondary coil in the base of each piece which directly feeds a C-W
multplier to produce around 180v.

Absolutely fantastic!
This might actually get me to play chess again!
Will you publish schematic drawing of this so it could be built?

promoting things - maybe one of the reasons why I'm always redesigning
rather than finishing them.

Hi,
Much of the work is in cutting and machining the parts, if there is
enough interest I'd supply it as a kit though.
Tony.

This IS the most impressive non-clock nixie project I have ever seen. WOW
:o)
Yes a kit would be very interesting for me too :o) (a bit depinding on
price)

Kudos Tony, Kudos!
and here was me looking at illuminating a glass chess set, this totally
outshines that (Pun intended). The most novel application I have ever seen
and being interested in the 'steampunk' genre right up my street.
(I want one lol)

Really cool and very creative!
Most of the work was making the chess board itself I think?
You could always add a nixie chess-clock to go with the nixie chess board
;-)

Yes, that's what I mean. We call them chess-clocks but maybe the official
name is chess timer, I don't know. They have 2 buttons at the top for
starting one, stopping the other. That would be very cool I reckon.

Why not both a clock and a two button timer...Tony sounds like he likes to

I think I would also try to let it run on rechargeable batteries and make
it portable. I roughly estimated you need about 5W for all chess pieces
which is not all that much. It only needs to operate for a few hours and
when pieces disappear from the board, it will draw less power.

The driver circuits aren't that efficient though, I'd estimate the
nixies take about 10W and the board loses another 15W. If the edges
were made wider it would be possible to fit enough mh cells in for
maybe 2 hours or longer using Li.
As it stands though it can be fed from an external 12v
Have to laugh Tony. You started off this thread with the words ...so I
decided to build something that
couldn't suffer from feature creep. Hah! Fool you, you showed it to us!
Now we have a never ending list of 'features' for you to add. Mind you
something like this chess set just screams out
This is absolutely the coolest thing I've seen in awhile. A perfect use for odd
ball tubes. I too would be interested in a kit if you decide to go there.
