Michel - that's exactly what happens. IN-9 tubes are significantly brighter than IN-13, and to my eyes much better for general use. I made this thing ( http://youtu.be/mQ1567EFCY0) with IN-13 and both flavours of IN9. Although the IN-13 were bigger, used less current and were more predictable to

Thanks for the info Adam. It doesn't really explain why the current is higher / sensitivity is lower for the IN-9. I still expect the IN9 to be brighter as the higher current should ionize more neon. Maybe I should measure it one day. Michel On Thursday, November 29, 2012 8:25:31 AM UTC+11,

I found this at radiomuseum.org: At this point, I should clarify the difference between the IN-9 and the IN-13 The IN-13 takes up to 5mA for a 12cm orange glow from Neon gas, and has three electrodes. One perforated cylinder as the anode, a central wire cathode for the glow, and a short pi

Just out of interest, is the IN-9 brighter than the IN-13? IN-9 requires 10mA current for full bar and IN-13 4mA. Wondering where the extra 6mA goes to, heat or light? Michel On Tuesday, November 27, 2012 5:41:16 AM UTC+11, Dan Foster wrote: > > Hello, > I have a few (10) IN-9 Bargraph tubes t
