>From my Radio Shack education back in the early 1970's..NE-2 bulbs
required 220K when running off 120VAC line and used 1/25 watt. NE-2H
(high-brightness) used a 22K resistor and used 1/4 watt.

There are many types/models of NE-2 neons, look at the table at the end of
the book "Using and Understanding Small Neon Lamps" by William G Miller,
might be in the files section on teh forum or can be downloaded from the
internet, the list contains recommended resistor values for 115 VAC - the

Phil, sorry I'm getting back at this but I think you're seriously overdriving these NE-2 bulbs.
Even the high brightness

I was taught to use 47 K resistors for NE-2 on 110 volts AC when I started back in 1975. My lamps may be NE-2 probably - I bought them in bulk at surplus stores and they are unmarked. I have had 8 running in my house since 1987 and none show any signs of darkening and I cannot
I hope somone here bought them at least?
