The reason I ask is my first Nixie clock is/was a glowingtech.  Today it decided to self destruct, killing a power supply and shattering the 78L05.  I figure it is time to move on to a more advanced clock, like the excellent QTC clocks by Pete over at PVElectronics. 

I figure I can salvage the Amtel chips to use in my forays into Arduino, but most of the other stuff is destined for my used electronics box.

Thanks for any info anyone might have.

Sounds like a short in the power supply.
