Description

Four Soviet Nixie tubes in pale ash — the lightest case in the range, and the one that disappears into a bright room.

The tubes

Four genuine IN-14 Nixie tubes, made in Soviet factories more than thirty-five years ago and never used since. Each digit is a shaped wire cathode lit end to end — an orange nobody has managed to fake with an LED. They sit in sockets rather than solder, so when one eventually goes you pull it out and push the next one in, in about a minute, with no tools. One spare ships in the box, so the first replacement costs you nothing.

The case

Handmade ash, hand-oiled. Ash is pale and open-grained, so the case reads as furniture rather than as equipment, and the orange of the tubes has nothing dark to fight.

Living with it

A motion sensor rests the tubes when the room is empty, which is what turns a few years of tube life into many. Temperature and humidity appear between the time, the backlight runs the full colour range or switches off entirely, and there is an alarm if you would rather wake to orange glow than to a phone screen. A backup battery keeps the time through a power cut.

Built by hand in Kyiv and covered for twelve months: if a tube fails inside that year, the replacement is free.

Zegar prezentuje się naprawdę dobrze, lepiej niż na zdjęciach. Polecam!!

It is a really nicely built Retro-Look clock, with more functions than I need. But that doesn't hurt. (Actually, I didn't need to use the Customer Service, because all was perfectly in order.)

This is a fine example of old tech renewed. It is beautifully designed. It even came preset to our local time which was exceptionally thoughtful. The item arrived promptly despite the long trip from Ukraine. Evgeny is very responsive to inquiries. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in old technology, steam punk, or something unique -- tech with a warm aesthetic. The shipping packaging is almost as good as the clock itself.

The quality was 11/10
My expectations were met and I will definitely soon be buying another one for my bedroom.

The motion sensor feature is amazing (if you are in the room, it lights up). Unlike many other stores' clocks, this clock is design is actually practical. Even the tubes are replaceable!
