Sadly it seems that (for now at least) the risk of getting B-7971 at anywhere near an affordable (for me) price is extremely low and unless anyone unearths a mountain of them and is willing to sell for what may be considered a reasonable price then I cant see the situation changing. Same thing

I have used these via the Smart Socket concept which allows you to easily display numbers, letters, punctuation and user defined characters on any number of these tubes. I have used 'smart' sockets for B-7971's as well as ZM1350, SP-101 and now 16 segment LED 'starburst' displays. My clocks

The 8 digit ‘clock’ is mentioned on the front page, but I can’t find it anywhere else on the site. Did it ever make it into production? On Saturday, September 12, 2020 at 9:17:37 PM UTC-4 Pramanicin wrote: > Check out Mitch's 8 digit B7971 wordclock? > > Www.angryelectrons.co > > Nick > > > >

I have 10 of the B7971 display tubes and I need to test them to verify they work, and then I want to find some interesting use for them beyond a clock. Seems a waste to use only for numbers when they can do so much more. Any easy way to verify the tubes, and do any of you have unique ideas for

Those do look nice! Good find. If they are more stable than INS-1s, which sometimes develop kind of a flickering, I envision the supply will dry pretty soon. On Friday, September 11, 2020 at 10:23:19 PM UTC-3 bdu...@gmail.com wrote: > Not sure if anyone else is interested, but I bought some
