Frequently Asked Questions
How does a Nixie tube display work?
Each tube holds a stack of wire cathodes shaped like the digits 0 to 9 in a low-pressure gas, mostly neon. When voltage is applied to one cathode, the gas around it glows, so that digit lights up in its classic orange colour.
What tubes does this clock use?
It uses six IN12 Nixie tubes made in the Soviet Union. Together they show hours, minutes and seconds, and each tube is lit from behind with a colour you can choose.
Can I change the colours?
Yes. You can set one colour for the whole display or pick a different colour for each tube. Settings are controlled through a Bluetooth mobile app or the touch buttons on the clock.
What is it made of and how big is it?
The case is made of solid wood, copper and acrylic, styled like an 80s radio or bedside alarm. It measures 18.2 cm x 4.8 cm x 5 cm, so it sits easily on a shelf or desk.
How is it powered?
The clock is powered through a Micro USB connection, so it can sit near a USB plug adaptor or a computer on your desk.

Cracking clock, really nifty and gives off a warm vibe. I do wish the power cord was a tad longer as reaching the socket is a bit awkward, but that’s minor.

I’ve got a soft spot for retro gadgets. this one’s a treat for the eyes! If only the price was a bit less steep, but still, it’s fab for vintage lovers.

The clock itself looks great, but it arrived a week later than expected. Not a disaster, but a bit annoying when you’re looking forward to something. lovely design though.
