S more than enough tocreate absolutely new mechanisms based upon reliable technologies. Devices ongas discharge lamps are fascinating with their lights and are an excellentinterior item in various rooms, especially decorated in retro or loft styles. The IN-14 indicator lamps are practically neonbulbs with a group of cathodes in the form of numbers.The bulb is filled withlow-pressure neon. Under the influence of a constant voltage, the cathode ofthe lamp emits orange-red light specific for neon filling. Depending on theapplied voltage, one or another cathode shines alternately. Everything is likein an incandescent lamp, only light emits a gas discharge. The service life ofsuch indicators is huge since there is no long and heavy load on one cathode.
For a full glow, a voltage should be not less than 100 V. Time is displayed on six indicator lamps in the HH:MM: SS format, in a 12 or 24-hour format. Between the pairs of lamps there aredividing indicators of lamps.
