NIXIE DUO AND NIXIE DRIVER

Edge-to-edge connecting header pins allow for importantly big numbers. We've had 24 IN-12A nixie tubes (12 NIXIE DUO AND NIXIE DRIVER pairs) running on one NIXIE TUBE POWER SUPPLY. While enumerating an unfathomable amount of good things, these nixie tubes know especially the favored Russian countdown protocol.

...this thing is amazing.  Now go buy one!
