Looks beautiful 😍 good for me

Its definitely a coversation piece. Probably makes your friends wonder if your some kind of mad scientist which is always a plus. I do wish the programming was a little simpler and had some added features like reacting to music. I'm told by the interwebs it has the hardware for such features it just needs the software. But regardless of if I ever figure that out its still worth it. Lovely little piece of clock art.

Very nice looking on my mantle

I purchased this for my daughter after she mentioned how cool a "nixi tube” clock in a movie was. At first I was going to build her one, but the tubes are only available from Russia, and are pretty expensive. This clock has the same retro look and can be set to display several types of numbers. It’s easy to assemble and set up, easily read from across the room and seems to be built with good quality components. I liked it so much, I got one for myself!

Pros
  • Home Décor Products
Cons
  • Due to the delicate nature of the Nixie tubes and other electronic components, the clock is susceptible to damage if not carefully handled, making it less durable for everyday use

One Sandwich Short of a Picnic

First Delivery: The IPS Nixie clock arrived with the package in good condition. Unwrapped it and set it up, plugged it in and hit the power button. Only five of the displays booted up and appeared like nixie tubes. The sixth one had a split blue/green screen. I tried changing modes, fonts, but nothing changed, one "tube" was clearly defective. I boxed it all up and began the return process. That all went well and I was able to return it to a local Kohl's. I could have elected to get a refund…

Inappropriate Video rated R

Was looking for alarm clocks and saw this, watched the included video, and lyrics were x rated, offended me, immediately stopped it. Will not buy, that was so unnecessary.

Pros
  • Clocks
Cons
  • Expensive Price Point
