The Glitchy Clock
Added 2019-10-25 08:00:01 +0000 UTCThis is a simple video about the Gixie clock. It’s one of my ‘cheese sandwich’ videos. For those who don’t know - this is a definition I coined for simple videos that are exactly what they are and nothing more but are also perfectly adequate for the job.
Yes it’s a bit of a filler video. I needed to free up an additional day or two for a more complex project I want to start work on. I think that may become the video after next, but anything could happen.
UPDATE - I've decided to leave this one as a Patreon Exclusive.
UPDATE2 - I’m going to try again: There’s a new version above. I really need the buffer of a few extra days on the next video, so if this one doesn’t go live there‘s going to be no video release for perhaps ten days and that would be bit of a kick in the wallet right now. So hopefully this re-edit will appease the (lack of) quality gods.

Hopefully they can redeem themselves a bit - a replacement ‘improved’ version is sitting in a box on the floor - I’ll get to it in a few days.

2019-10-29 19:26:35 +0000 UTCInteresting approach for the clock. Too bad it's such a dud. I've gotten some of the nixie tube clocks and music visualizers you've demonstrated on your channel. I did want to share one company out of Russia that I've bought a nixie clock and two VFD clocks from. It's called Kamalabs: https://kama-labs.com/; they are also on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/str/nixielab I've bought their Sonya, Yulia, and Wifi Anuta clocks; the Anuta is my favorite. The clocks are decently priced and well engineered. I've had them for 2-3 years without issue. On their Sonya nixie clock, they provided sockets. So when a nixie tube burns out, it's very easy to replace. I highly recommend the company and products for anyone who loves nixie or VFD clocks!
