The display on this looks like it's nixie tubes. Looks like 24VAC plus 450 VDC power required.

That 450V makes me think it uses dekatrons.

That does make more sense.

Sorry to disagree, but if you look closely at the filtered part of the display, it looks like a 7-segment display.

450V is probably just an input jack, not the power supply.
