Okay - this might not be the most practical use of nixie technology but it is cool.  They are attendance badges based off on IN-16 tubes and powered by only two AA batteries which provide a shocking 40 hours of life.  Be sure to check out the links below for much more information.

What an absolute waste of a good IN-16 nixie tube! Dislike! ;-)

You have to say that the design and documentation is great though...

Interesting to see a transformer used for the step up rather than a switching circuit.
