good design, parts wrong
For IV-18 VFD Tube Digital Clock (Kit or Assembled)
Missing some pieces and although the VFD is marked as a IV-18 its pinout is not like any datasheet available, pins are wrong.

Ryan,
Thank you for your purchase.
There are two versions of IV-18 tubes on the market, 19-wire and 22-wire ones. As explained in our YouTube tutorial video,

The 19-wire version has 3 wires missing compared to the 22-wire version. Those 3 wires are not used any way so either 19- or 22-wire version will work equally.
Let me know if you need further assistance.
Warm regards,
Dr. Aiden Fang
