What did I get myself into this time?
Saw one of these in a tv series, sure it was placed there and panned many times as a subliminal sales ploy.
I bit !
Its a nixie clock kit. Hate to admit but I used electronics that had these for displays.
Interestingly none of these tubes seem to be available in North America, guess stock was purged when they became obsolete. Russia seams to have a good stock yet, this kit came from Lithuania with CCCP proudly etched in the glass. Guess they're like me and save everything.
Might be (sure there will be) questions to follow.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
