Would make a nice clock, but I think nixies make less noise when changing state.

Oh,I dont think it worth 450USD though they looks great.

Meanwhile I still seen this type displays on the Hongkong's Buses.Unfortunately,I forgot to take some photos.They are about 30cm*20cm.

They can display digital & character,including traditional Chinese characters.Interesting.

A tad price at $450.

I have one of these in its original bus mounting frame, but haven't
gotten it running. Needs new Sprague driver chips. I got it from an
artist friend - she had me set the dots to spell POEM for an art
installation.

$450??? I have quite a few 8x5 panels about 14" high from a freeway sign. I should put them on Ebay next time I need a holiday!

Mine have a reed switch behind the dot that reads the dot state and lights a bank of LEDS so that it can be read in fog or at night. The LEDs are those horrible green/yellow ones from the 90's that my mate who sells LEDS refers to as "phleghm colour" :).
