LIST OF COMPONENTS

A Nixie tube (also called digitron) is a glass tube which
contains a wire-mesh anode and multiple cathodes
shaped like numbers.
The tube is lled with a gas, usually neon. Connecting
cathode to electric voltage ignites an electric discharge
which will surround the number with orange glow.
Nixies experienced the biggest boom in the 1960s. Today,
the use of this technology is a rarity. It was replaced by
uorescent displays and later on by light emitting diodes.
Although the use of digitrons is now quite rare it is
without questions the most beautiful type of display.
Digitrons themselves are very rare.

ESD

Tip: Rest both parts on a solid surface and push against it.
The parts were designed to t together as tightly as possible so that their connection would therefore be as strong as possible.
For this reason, more assembly force is required.

Handle the main electronics with caution.
Assemble in a clean and dry environment. The electronics must not come into contact with water.

Pay attention to the orientation of the arrow.

Make sure the arrow is oriented correctly.

Insert a coin battery.
Battery needs to be replaced once in approximately 5 to 6 years.

If you prefer, you can pass the cable through the hole on the left (in the picture also highlighted in color).
For safety reasons, the cable connector can only be connected in one direction. If you are unable to connect the connector, just turn it over.
