Sourcing smooth top nixies?

[alex nolan]

Does anyone have any leads (or is willing to sell) nixie tubes with smooth tops? I am looking for tubes in the same form as IN-18 but want something other than an IN-18.

I know about tubes like NL-900, NL-5440A, or B-5441A, but I haven't found any listings for them in particular, would be open to buying them or any other smooth top tubes.

Perhaps this is too obvious, but what about the ZM1040/ZM1042? Jens

Thanks, good point! I found a listing or two on ebay (though the ZM1042 there seem like it actually might be a ZM1040 with the orange washed off, sparse results in any case). I'm might grab some, but I'd be interested in sourcing some other tubes as well.

Dolam LC-631 tubes? They are slightly taller and slimmer than other B13B socket tubes and they come with a smooth top.

Thanks Tomasz, that's a good suggestion! I added it to the ebay search list.

If anyone has any alternative sources for purchasing, or wants to sell any, please share :)
