CHRONOTRONIX IN-18 NIXIE CLOCK
The very latest in Nixie art.
This is our exclusive, feature packed, high quality Nixie clock. This clock is handmade and uses very large Russian IN-18 Nixie tubes. Its innovative circuitry and high-tech components allows to design the clock according to a perfect proportion.
DESIGN
Perfectly executed proportions determine the pure design of this timepiece. The case is made of brushed stainless steel -a complimentary material for this unique Nixie clock. The surface is very shiny and reflects the orange glow of the Nixie tubes -you won't be able to take your eyes off it. We will send a pair of cotton gloves along with your CHRONOTRONIX IN-18 NIXIE CLOCK in order to avoid leaving fingerprints on the case. Please wear them whenever you touch your Nixie clock.
TECHNIQUE
The CHRONOTRONIX IN-18 NIXIE CLOCK uses a state of the art circuitry. Time is kept by precise real time clock. It's accurate to within 0.0003s per minute.
Nixie tubes require a high voltage to operate. In the Nixie clocks there are different techniques used to generate this voltage. The CHRONOTRONIX IN-18 NIXIE CLOCK uses the most innovative power supply we are aware of. It is a highly efficient, fully screened, low noise switch mode power supply with a very small shape (inside the case of course). The clock is not multiplexed, so the Nixie tubes are driven directly.
TUBES
The tubes are Russian IN-18. A popular but rare tube with the "incredible" digit height of 1.57 inches/4.0cm. The shape of the numbers of the IN-18 Nixie tube have been considered to be one of the most beautiful ever made.

CONFIGURATION / POWER SUPPLY
The CHRONOTRONIX IN-18 NIXIE CLOCK will work in ALL countries of the world. The mains power (voltage, frequency and plug) does NOT matter at all. We are using a desktop-style power supply that only requires a seperate standard 3-pole power cord (as used for PC, monitor, printers...) which has the necessary line power plug configuration for your country. We do carry the most common power cables: US, EU, UK and CHI. For all other countries you ONLY need to use your local
power cable and plug it into the desktop power supply-it's that simple.
