Or you can simply add a toggle switch on the clock front that disconnects the high voltage to the tubes.

That way the clock runs dark until someone turns on the tubes.   Turn the tubes off when you leave the room.

Easy.  Simple. Effective.

I feel like PIRs are a must on most nix clocks. Why burn up tubes when no one is around to enjoy the glow? Seems like a total waste. 

 

For older stuff that doesn't have PIR compatability built in, you can always get an external PIR controlled switch: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00KAB4CRG?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

Datasheet does give an expected lifetime of 10,000 hrs, which is pretty good. Put a PIR on a clock with them and it'll last a long time...

That's quite unfortunate for such nice tubes
