This tube, along with a test socket arrived yesterday from Sadudu in China.
It is very well constructed and so far seems to work quite well too.
It is running using 170 volts DC through a 10k anode resistor.  It draws between
3.5 and 4 milliamps depending upon which digit is lit.
This test circuit has it running from a 74142 counter/driver IC, operated by a 555
timer running in astable mode at approximately 1 Hz.

The other video shows my data sheet for it translated into inches.   -Chuck
