Well not really, I had to give up five of them. They are in a clock somewhere now, I traded them for some other tubes. Feel better? ;) On 1/22/2017 1:47 PM, Nicholas Stock wrote: Now that's just mean:-) Sent from my iPhone On Jan 22, 2017, at 12:44, jb-electronics

Re: [neonixie-l] NL 7094

I am not even sure if I woud ever build such a clock. For me these kind of tubes are too precious to be burnt off in some clock. Weird collector's point of view, probably. At some time I had quite a few GR10G (transparent mesh), and I considered building a clock with them, but I decided against
