"Modular" 6-digit Arduino Nixie Clock - power supply

Hi all,

I happen to have a 15v (6A) power supply available. Would that be an overkill?

Without a load it provides 15.33V. Now the question is - are radiators going to be necessary? Or I should go buy 12v adaptor?

Thank you all, I listened to the sound of wisdom and went and bought a 12v/1a adaptor for this project.

I received the kit today and I built it. I had so much fun Thank you Ian for including spare leds, one of them didn't light up and I replaced it. Maybe I overheated it, it was the first one I soldered. These diodes are not like the rest of the components, if you touch it - the plastic melts.

To be honest, this kit is not for beginners, but with patience all is good at the end of the day. I am very happy with the end result.

Ahhh... that explains it. I've seen all the warnings about being careful with the neopixels and a soldering iron, but I assumed it was because the internals were fragile. Knowing it's the plastic is better - at least it's instantly visible if you screw up.
