Nixie tubes in a micowave oven (video link)

It's no secret I dont like IN-1 nixies, and I have several of them that have shorted internally, making them rather useless.

I had to replace our microwave oven, so now the old one is being used for "experiments".

The video doesn't capture the intense deep red-purple glow, but you get the idea.
