Well not really, I had to give up five of them. They are in a clock somewhere now, I traded them for some other tubes. Feel better? ;)

Not really...ha ha!!

I've resigned myself to the fact it is very unlikely I'll get to make a clock with 6 NL7094's.....I was born in the wrong era....

I am not even sure if I woud ever build such a clock. For me these kind of tubes are too precious to be burnt off in some clock. Weird collector's point of view, probably. At some time I had quite a few GR10G (transparent mesh), and I considered building a clock with them, but I decided against that for the above reason. So the only Nixie clocks I ever owned had IN-14s in it, or Burroughs B-5870s...

I get that Jens, but eventually they will fail...maybe not in 10 or 20 years, but eventually they will de-gas...? I'm a believer in enjoying them whilst you can...life is short. And hey, Dalibor is making new ones, so it's all good!

I like to have them in clocks, but I like to have a few backups lying around too, for when they start to fail. Which reminds me, I need to buy some backups! I don't want to give the wrong impression though. It is early days so I only have IN14, IN8-2 and Z5900M.

Agree. There is no joy in an un-lit nixie. Build stuff.

Well I think it depends. I think it is also important to preserve some tubes for future generations ;)

Best wishes

There was one on the German eBay a few months ago. It was sold as untested. Unfortunately I completely underestimated the price!

I saw one a few months ago, sold in USA for 50$ "Buy it now" New in box... The seller must have not know what it really was. Sadly someone was quicker than me.

But i have to admit, i'm not that crazy about big tubes. I think all nixies are beautiful and special. I own a few types i did not find a single entry in the web about, im curious how many undocumented and undiscovered types there still are.
