Put a tube on your PC just for fun..

[M Gregg]

Just for fun put a tube clock on your PC..(I have no connection)

I just like it...Ive had it on my PC for a few years now. Its running on Win 7.

Scott's Nixie Tube Clock

I like the VFD in Cyan....reminds me of a clock I made years ago..

I just use the small VFD and select auto start and remove the start screen in the options put it above the win clock on the task bar...
Its worth the strange look you get when you tell the IT tech my PC clock is tube based..LOL

Question from a well known poster:-

How can I create high quality tube buffer/ultimate high-end preamp with this and what colour would be best??

John

LMAO,

I guess it depends on what colour LEDs you put in the cathode..

Pretty cool M Gregg I have built a fair few nixie clocks, I made a batch a couple of years ago as Christmas presents.

If you have an Android phone there is a nixie clock application on what they now call Google Play Store.

Cheers Matt.

I've got an N-media PC VFD on one of my computers at home, so does that count?
