Nice watch. What's it's size physically? In mm?

You'll of course have to be careful when doing something that a dekatron is
not designed for, as Jon says there is always the risk of wrecking it by
destroying the electrodes or accidentally creating a conductive path
between electrodes you don't want a path between.
Always put a current limit
Martin's 'anode trick' is indeed a neat one. I've always shied away from
reversing the polarity when playing with dekatrons because I read
somewhere vaguely authoritative that it rapidly destroys the quality of the
cathode surfaces. However that's probably not an instantaneous event, and
anyway
