[neonixie-l] Re: Frosted Metal Case Instead of This Shiny One?

Weird... I am not able to edit my post...but I wanted to say a case that would not need modification like drilling and such. Thanks. -Darin On Sunday, June 8, 2014 11:36:16 PM UTC-5, Dman777 wrote: Hi, Does anyone know of a frosted metal case that would fit the clock kits

[neonixie-l] Question on Z5660M Tubes- What kind of gas and age survival?

I am about to the trigger and go for a clock kit with Z5660M Tubes unused. They were manufactured in 1985. I know there are a lot variables involved...like the gas used in them. Does anyone know what kind of gas these used? If the tubes from 1985 are good? If they should of aged ok with no
