MADE IN THE USA

Fully assembled & ready to "plug n play", included with everything shown.

• A demo can be viewed here.
• A quick demo here.
• Text message demo here.

WIFI module included for network connection which enables automatic time & date set and option to enter a text message which will scroll through, please see the video (50 character maximum, including white spaces).

Can alternatively be equipped with a GPS module (buyer's choice) - please note that scrolling text message will not operate with GPS option, only wifi.

Uses all standard size components (not surface mount "throwaways") so it can actually be repaired as opposed to other designs.

The microcontroller is in a socket for easy replacement.

The RGB LEDs make it possible to produce different color lighting under the tubes, user selectable. Just press & hold the led color button.

An alphanumeric Nixie clock using B7971 nixies with RGB led lighting. The enclosure is plexiglass, homemade from 1/8" & 1/4".

Homemade, not a commercial product. Below are the operating instructions. User selected 120VAC (U.S. standard) or 240VAC (some other countries)

I will ship it anywhere in the world, but I cannot be responsible for problems and/or delays caused by customs in your country.

International buyers, please send your address for a shipping quote. It is an entirely homemade novelty craft project from my workbench. Obviously, it is a novelty item meant for entertainment only, and since it is homemade, user discretion is strongly advised.

Outside dimensions are about 12" W x 6" H x 4" D.

Instructions:

1. Refresh time from network - fast set + slow set
2. Select time, date or text display - fast set + ledcolor, slow set to select, toggle to set
3. Twelve or twenty-four hour clock format - fast set + toggle, slow set to select, led color to set
4. Set up preset on/off display times - led color + toggle, fast set/slow set to select, led color to set/move to next screen
5. Select time zone - slow set + toggle, fast set to select, slow set to set

7. To enter text message (up to 50 characters, including white spaces), press and hold the "reset" button on the wifi module board until the blue led lights up on the board (not the one on the chip that blinks)
8. Go to your networks on your device and connect to the "WifiModule" network, as when setting the module up initially, but instead of hitting the Wifi Module connect page, instead type the address - 192.168.4.1/TextInput
9. This will pull up the text input page where you can enter the text message and hit "Submit" button on the page.
