I love the orange glow of Nixies, and a do-nothing box would distract me for hours. I only have one Nixie device, a clock (from Taylor Electronics) that sits in the bedroom and also serves as a nightlight. Currently out of commission as it took a tumble off the ledge and the power plug pulled a

All I know is that I use (3) silver oxide cells to power up my Hewlett-Packard HP-15C calculator. Those cells last between 6 and 10 years. Bought that machine new in 1984, and it's now on it's 4th set of those cells. Chuck > > > Original Message >From: offl...@zeelandnet.nl >To: neonixi

The folks on this board know way more than I do about what was used to power historical equipment. I only worked with batteries for a year (25 years ago) as a technician ("go there, do that") with the small watch cells and the only high-voltage work we did was a 5 cell pack of 1.5V AgMnO cells
