Problem is probably the wrong word. Paul at Bad Dog Designs had told me
that some 18s develop this blue dot...as you say...when multiplexed.

Define problem...
I have a clock where I put in nothing but tubes that show the blue dot
(it's a multiplexed design) and I quite like it;-) Evidently, if the
tubes are 'correctly' driven (direct drive) then the blue dot doesn't
occur...but that's above my pay grade...

Yes but I think it is relatively rare. I never had it.

Also...I have been told the 18s have a "blue dot" problem.

On the other end of the spectrum, IN-1's are very cheap and are great for
experimenting, especially when you start designing your own clocks. No hard
feelings if you damage one, etc.
Several years ago I bought 25 of them, many have since died and ended up in
the microwave oven a few nights ago.

Thanks Nick! I haven't found any 1040s on eBay currently.

18's are a little bit more expensive that 1040's at the moment on the Bay
if you're patient enough. Although, the price for IN18's may be softening a
little as I've seen a few listings come down 10 to 20 dollars...they're
still too expensive in my opinion..;-)
Welcome to the madhouse Mike.

gregebert...thanks for the response. Great information! I believe it's too
late...it's already become an addiction. I'm new and I've already bought three
kits right off the bat! 😆
So, 18s are cheaper than 1040s?

Welcome to the hobby. Be warned, though, it's addictive
I've purchased a total of sixteen IN-18 tubes over the past year from Ebay,
and the pricing has gone up substantially in that time, from roughly $35US
to $50US per tube. They are the most affordable 'large' nixie tubes you
will find.
I would be interested in one as well.

Hey folks. I wanted to introduce myself and ask a question. My name is Mike and
I'm very new to Nixie tubes. I have purchased a few kits from PV and I'm
excited about building them. One of the kits is the Spectrum 18 and I need to
find some IN-18 tubes. I almost pulled the trigger on some on eBa
Hey Mitch... I'd like two sets please do you need help with funding
these... thanks and let me know
