I got my first nixie clock from a friend who built it from a kit about 2 years ago. I attached an image of the board, I can’t seem to find one like it anywhere online.

Thing is, I think it needs a remote that I don’t have to control it. Is there a way to find one or program one? Appreciate the help gang!

I've got nothing useful to add but that is an impressive part count! :)

Interesting... individual transistors on each cathode and a voltage multiplier for the HV?? I thought I knew about most of the boards out there, but I don't recognize this one either...are you sure it was a kit? Looks awfully well soldered....especially the micro... LOL.

Doesn't your friend have a record of where he bought it? Also, try https://www.facebook.com/groups/nixieclockfanpage - members there seem to be pretty good at identifying obscure nixie boards.

He doesn’t. I just signed up for that facebook group - I’ll report back any info. Meantime, here’s a shot of the other side of the board.

I just squinted at it - the only thing I can find is that on that side of the board it says IN-14 Nixie clock.

I wonder why some of my responses above show as deleted.

Tangent: what HDR software are you using? There seems to be a lot of tonemapping and microcontrast enhancement going on.
