## Overview

This 6-piece set of IN-12 vintage Soviet Nixie tubes features 18-19mm tall Arabic numerals illuminated by neon gas, operating at ignition voltages up to 170V. Compatible with standard 14-pin sockets, these tubes offer authentic retro display capabilities perfect for industrial-style clocks and signage, delivering a unique blend of collectible value and functional design.

## Description

The IN12 is the Soviet analog to Western oval Nixie tubes such as the Burroughs B5991 and 8422. To save on costs, the tube does not have a cathode to represent the number '5', instead an additional '2' stencil is used, mounted upside down. Digit height is 19mm and the diameter of the tube is 30mm at it's widest point. This tube is actually mechanically compatible with the 14 pin sockets used by the B5991, though the underside nipple requires that said sockets have a centrally located perforation for clearance.

Review: Mint Soviet Era Nixies, Long Live the Ukraine !!!!! - Perfect Soviet Era Nixies !
Review: Awesome look! - They include the female tabs for soldering which was nice. I wish these things weren’t so expensive. A few years back, not that long ago, they were $4 a piece. But that’s neither her nor there I suppose.. I used it to make a sick fallout inspired clock. Kit comes with 6 Nixie tubes and 4 “dots”. So if you wanted to make a few clocks you could get 2 sets for enough for 3. Or just have 2 spares for one clock

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One is damaged
*by G***. on November 27, 2024*

Surprised to find stuff like this on Amazon but they worked great except 1. It could have been my own fault as I wired the it upside down initially so might have been a good set of 6 and I damaged that one or it came damaged.
