It's funny, I read your post literally 45 seconds after opening up the
clock and discovering the NE-2 seemed to be soldered in and wondering if
the only recourse was to desolder it. Someone near me on this list who has
some expertise wrote and offered to take a look so I think I'll
Hello John. What a great explanation, and pretty much what I would
expect. Ira.

What will happen after some guy touches a high voltage point, falls off

You will be served. Usually a work.
Depends on the carrier, as well. I had a DHL shipment (PC boards) from Hong
Kong clear customs in LAX in just a few hours.

From what I'm being told, a disclaimer will only go so far in court.
"IF" it can be proven in court that any particular item was poorly
engineered or manufactured, and it caused some sort of problem, the
disclaimer does no good. If a problem arose because of the way an item
was used or
So, I am having the same problem. In fact I am awaiting the arrival of a
package right now...
I sent a small package, with a small item for modification inside, to
Alberta Canada on the 22nd of April and arrived at its destination on the
24th. It was sent back to me on the 26th and arrived
Terry, thanks. I'll try that tonight!

Disclaimers are industry-standard practice; take a look at any datasheet.
Component manufacturers have standard disclaimers in their datasheets,
disavowing any liability for consequences of using their products. In
addition, most have another specific disclaimer regarding life-support
devices.
A disclaimer I don't believe would accomplish very much. A good lawyer
would argue defective design on the part of the engineer who designed
the item, or even supplying poor or questionable quality parts, or
anything else that a good lawyer could and would argue, to take any
responsibility
That's all well and good, but you'll be arguing against a lawyer who gets 30% of
the money he extracts from you on behalf of his client. Best to be on the safe
side.

I would argue that the unassembled kit itself is not capable of producing
harmful voltages or electromagnetic interference, therefore it's not
subject to regulation. It's about as harmful as a loaf of bread.
But, whoever assembles the kit and turns it on would assume responsibility.
I would
My suggestion would be to open the clock and re-seat the processor chip,
for starters. It is socketed.
Simple, even pressure with your thumb. Don't go crazy. Sometimes the
contacts tarnish and a little re-seating will do the trick.

I'd venture a guess that the "G" may have stood for Giga as in
Gigahertz, and the "M" for Mega as in megahertz, which would mean that
it was used in a frequency counter. Ira.

Thanks Nick. Yes, I was so sad to learn of Jeff's passing. I only knew
him slightly, partly through a few helpful emails related to nixie clocks
and watches, mostly but through his beautiful work. His clock has been
proudly on my mantle for the last 12 years, through a couple of moves. I'm
Hello
Seems like there are a few people in this group that have developed kits
involving nixie-tubes and sell those kits.
I'm starting to think about developing my own kits via a kick-starter
campaign. But it seems it's dead before it has begun.
I live in Switzerland, and would like to sell
Hi - Welcome to the group - this is indeed the correct place to ask this
question.
Jeff is unfortunately no longer with us, but there are folk here who know
his work well and may be able to help. I have one of his NixiSat clocks - a
thing of beauty - which has pride of place in our house - I
My much loved Jeff Thomas NixiChron began behaving oddly last night. And I
haven't a clue how to get it fixed. Who does one hire in this sort of
situation, how do you find someone?
The problem the clock is exhibiting is pretty weird. It began to beep every
few minutes (it's supposed to only
