Mark Smith over at surfncircuits has a nice write-up about building an ETA Nixie Tube Clock: This DIY project will combine the estimated time of arrival function with a Nixie tube display to create an estimated time of arrival (ETA) Nixie tube clock. It is all easily controlled by a Raspberry Pi Zero W that […]

Luca Dentella has developed a Nixie thermometer to measure the temperature of the liquid cooling system, that is available on Github. I decided to log the design and the development of the project in ten blog posts. They show my “divide et impera” approach: I divided the whole project in small tasks (drive a nixie […]
Make your own Nixie tube socket tutorial

It periodically reads out the time, digit by digit. It’s a clock made of a single IN-1 Nixie tube controlled by a […]
