![]() ![]() ![]() So the Model #4 came in a regular cardboard box with some logos and graphics. Besides this one Nixieshop has a ton of different models too in different styles for everybody! And their prices are very reasonable starting at just 130$ up to 420$ which is pretty cheap if you ask me and makes an excellent present for a watch geek or just any guy who likes cool, interesting stuff + it makes a nice interior decor too. This one features a very slim design, motion sensor, transparent top cover and changable LED colours. And today they sent me a clock that isn’t even released yet, but it is a revamped Model #4 which was one of their most popular models. actually is a small company from Ukraine and founded by Petro Vodopyan. Such tubes rarely exceed 40 ☌ (104 ☏) even under the most severe of operating conditions in a room at ambient temperature thus making it perfect for home applications like a Nixie tube clock! It is hence a cold-cathode tube (a form of gas-filled tube), and is a variant of the neon lamp. Although as many audipihiles pointed it out, it resembles a vacuum tube in appearance, but its operation does not depend on thermionic emission of electrons from a heated cathode. The tube is filled with a gas at low pressure, usually mostly neon and often a little mercury or argon, in a Penning mixture. Applying power to one cathode surrounds it with an orange glow discharge. The glass tube contains a wire-mesh anode and multiple cathodes, shaped like numerals or other symbols for some Japan made tubes. Nixie Tube or cold cathode display , is an electronic device used for displaying numerals or other information using glow discharge. So before we dive more into the review let me explain what is a Nixie Tube and how it works. Many of you wanted for me to find something interesting for you all watch geek’s that isn’t a wristwatch and so I found a couple! One of the companies is the Nixie Clock! I actually found 3 popular companies making these Nixie clocks and one of them is at which which we are looking at today.
