    What I love is how in Japan, they build vending machines so well and take care of them so well, that you can find old 70's machines with Nixie Tubes as the timer display while it heats up your food. Really retro looking.

      Doesn't "retro" mean to imitate something from the past? If it's the actual thing itself, would it still be "retro", or just "old"? :-)

    I worked in the Nuclear I&C regimen, and to replace almost any system from the 70's or 80's is extremely difficult...any replacement system has to exactly match "Form, Fit, and Function"; something newer could be created that is more sensitive, but that would be an issue (how will the "downstream" components react?) So I had to replace nixie tubes in units...yes, there was an "upgraded" newer retrofit, but it would have cost millions to be able to use the retrofit. As a result, I had to find the NLA exact same tubes. Newer ones were unacceptable, as were the Soviet versions. Thank goodness I found a warehouse that was being liquidated and scored 38 brand new exact matches. Lord knows what will happen when those run out...

      @akawilly Před 8 lety +3

      Hey Techmoan, you can remove that distracting flicker by changing around your iso, aperture, and shutter speed.
      Slow the shutter and raise the aperture. Preferably keep the iso as low as you can to stay away from grain.

    • @CookingWithCows
      @CookingWithCows Před 7 lety +2

      the only important thing here is the shutter speed, or recorded frames per second. If it's recording at 30 frames per second, and the electric operates at 60 hertz, then every second frame, the camera will record it while the power is "off", resulting in flicker.
      what iso probably does is, with higher sensibility, it swamps out the picture so that the flicker is not so noticable, but that doesn't fix the problem.

    • @akawilly
      @akawilly Před 7 lety

      don't you know the three affect each other? If you change the shutter you must compensate with ISO and/or aperture. The camera will do it automatically if it's any good though.

I'm about to start ordering more tube clock products, I'm already in love with tubes through audio equipment, which is a whole different story about the warmth of tubes. It's kind of in the same vein as incandescent bulbs vs LED's. The warm glow of that old technology is more pleasing, more primal, closer to just looking at a fire.

      +MaceGaming53 I have a pile of the necessary B-4998 tubes. The problem is that these end-view tubes will result in a watch that is over an inch thick. So the case design is, shall we say, tricky.

    • @Coopersville
      @Coopersville Před 8 lety +15

      You're getting shafted hard if you actually believe this. This is a niche high school experiment using semi-rare but inexpensive parts. A regular mechanical watch is dozens of times more complex than this.

    • @amaulana090
      @amaulana090 Před 8 lety +2

      +Coopersville
      Well, the components are not really high tech or anything, but the quality of the build for a "high school" experiment is quite decent.
      The overall design is quite rugged, and hold the components in place pretty well.
      Its also hand made for the most part.
      And although the Nixie series are not expensive (yet), but they are discontinued technology from Russia.
      So yeah.
      It may be just some Nixie bulbs in a modern circuit board, but its the uniqueness and use of materials that makes it expensive.
      It's also has limited production, so I guess that raises the price quite a bit.

      the watch actually costs $495.
      Anyways... This is what makes it expensive:
      1. Aircraft Aluminum
      2. Hand made (with the help of machinery of course) by _someone else_ (service fee).
      3. Circuitry (the circuit is expensive alone, you know)
      4. Not mass produced (if it was, it would be $150-200 cheaper).
