Using miniature Numitron tube display units of Russian origin, this clock provides a beautiful glowing display of hours, minutes, and seconds. These tubes were used throughout the 1970s and 80s in laboratories, engineering and military applications requiring easily readable digits from a wide viewing angle. This clock has modular, removable tubes. If a tube breaks or fails you can replace it with another modular tube. The clock includes 2 extra tubes for spares.
The wooden base dimensions are 22cm x 6cm x 2.4cm. Similar to "Nixie" display tubes, Numitron tubes run at lower voltage, and don't have problems with cathode poisoning. The tubes in this clock are highly sought after for their beautiful orange "digital" glow, and a long display life of up to 10 years. Each tube is 11mm diameter x 30mm in height.
This clock is powered over USB, with a high quality black braided cord. You can power the clock using any standard USB-A port on your computer, a standard USB charger, or USB battery pack. The clock has internal battery backup, retaining the correct time when not plugged in.
We will provide an app to set the clock's time when plugged into your PC or Mac. We provide high levels of workmanship and take pride in the quality of our products.
