What I love is how in Japan, they build vending machines so well and take care of them so well, that you can find old 70's machines with Nixie Tubes as the timer display while it heats up your food. Really retro looking.
It is often said that if you take care of your things you have better things.
Doesn't "retro" mean to imitate something from the past? If it's the actual thing itself, would it still be "retro", or just "old"? :-)

only if they could take care of their employees as good as their products
then there wont be so many overworked people in Japan

When I saw these I thought "wait, I've seen this somewhere before". Then I realized a similar tube display was used in HBO's Chernobyl miniseries where it was showing the reactor's output power. Very interesting stuff.
Like he said, laboratory equipment. Most Chernobyl equipment would have been lab grade due to its nature.

In Metro: Last Light, I think Artyom has a nixie watch.
Clyde Marshall only on easy on harder difficulties it's an analog watch that you really have to pay attention to
That's only in the Redux version if you're playing Survival mode. If you play in Spartan mode then it's the Nixie Watch. Of course it is a little smaller than this one.
+Clyde Marshall yup
Honestly, I've always preferred analog watches. But the nixie watch just looks so dang cool.
+Clyde Marshall I didn't learn how to tell time until very late so I stuck to digital clocks and waterproof digital wrist watch calculators out of practicality.
I'm not a jewelry guy so I just don't see the appeal in a fancy analog watch
Am I the only one who got goosebumps seeing those numbers. BETA TIMELINE!!
Watching this in 2021 - how your channel has evolved! It is now arguably one of the most interesting and informative tech channels out there. Long may it remain so!

14 years ago to this day, still making great videos!
The coolest watches in my opinion were still the digital ones that had a universal remote control function, where you could tune them in to a TV's IR. I still remember a very irate headmaster trying to weed out which one of 100+ 12-year olds kept changing the channel of the TV while watching some Channel 4 Learning crap during assembly.

"Thanks for watching" more like "thanks for WATCHing"
Hold on that's the same thing

Hey Techmoan, you can remove that distracting flicker by changing around your iso, aperture, and shutter speed.
Slow the shutter and raise the aperture. Preferably keep the iso as low as you can to stay away from grain.
the only important thing here is the shutter speed, or recorded frames per second. If it's recording at 30 frames per second, and the electric operates at 60 hertz, then every second frame, the camera will record it while the power is "off", resulting in flicker.
what iso probably does is, with higher sensibility, it swamps out the picture so that the flicker is not so noticable, but that doesn't fix the problem.
don't you know the three affect each other? If you change the shutter you must compensate with ISO and/or aperture. The camera will do it automatically if it's any good though.

Its funny to see how like 50% of the people comment about CoD black ops, and 50% comment about Steins Gate
Those are the two things I get flashbacks from
I comment about Metro. ;)
Barely anyone is saying that STFU
I was just gonna comment about black ops but im still gonna comment it
Sterben Gaming but that one percent comments about both
And a legend was born
I worked in the Nuclear I&C regimen, and to replace almost any system from the 70's or 80's is extremely difficult...any replacement system has to exactly match "Form, Fit, and Function"; something newer could be created that is more sensitive, but that would be an issue (how will the "downstream" components react?) So I had to replace nixie tubes in units...yes, there was an "upgraded" newer retrofit, but it would have cost millions to be able to use the retrofit. As a result, I had to find the NLA exact same tubes. Newer ones were unacceptable, as were the Soviet versions. Thank goodness I found a warehouse that was being liquidated and scored 38 brand new exact matches. Lord knows what will happen when those run out...

To think this was Techmoan’s first video and it’s still genuinely enjoyable is odd.
wait this was his first video!?
I have a $300 dollar Davc&Co Nixie tube watch my girlfriend bought me for my birthday and I love it. I'm about to start ordering more tube clock products, I'm already in love with tubes through audio equipment, which is a whole different story about the warmth of tubes. It's kind of in the same vein as incandescent bulbs vs LED's. The warm glow of that old technology is more pleasing, more primal, closer to just looking at a fire.
All I can think of is Steins;Gate.
yes

That was one confusing anime.
You simply MUST wear that watch while playing Fallout.
I've lost count the number of times i've been looking through youtube and this nixie watch video is recomended to me, it's nuts!
I watched it 10 years ago.
"Did the worldline change before? Or was it always these numbers?"
;_;
it looks exactly like that watch from metro last light
Because it's a nixie watch also :)
All the people here talking about Stein's Gate or Call of Duty, but does anyone remember the nixie watch Artyom had in Metro: Last Light?
i want one so badly, too bad i wont get the artyom edition
@Panzer_Waffle That account has nothing to do with furries. It's main character from a webcomic based on TESIV: Oblivion. It' called prequel.
I want one so badly that im just going to make one myself
It's quite mesmerising to watch the digits fade in and out when switching..

ARRRGHH THE NUMBERS
Damn you I'm too late to comment that.
I dont know ;-; why does everyone ask me.
Nixie tubes are such a cool display. I love the vibe that comes with them.
Watching this in 2020. Can't believe this video was made 10 years ago. How fast time went by.
The numbers Mason, what do they mean?!
Klaasjan Hoekstra nice reference.
You beat me to it!
Klaasjan Hoekstra I was thinking the same shit.
bebop i was gonna say the same thing c:

i want one like in metro last light :(
+MaceGaming53 I have a pile of the necessary B-4998 tubes. The problem is that these end-view tubes will result in a watch that is over an inch thick. So the case design is, shall we say, tricky.
nixiebunny1 yah
Could you not use led filaments for some designs?
kistuszek true i could...i might do that... but nixie tubes are cooler.
Hey I am mad scientist it's so cool sunuvabish

"It's me, yeah the organization copied my design on the microwave-phone..."
but it is the divergence meter, dont worry, the microwave-phone(temporary name) is still on safe
0:18 I actually use that watch, cost me 25 bucks, wristband broke and had to spend in the realm of 10 bucks to fix but it's never given me any issues and is pretty damned handy.
I love these types of Clocks, these are probably one of my favorite types of clocks to me its really unique
@jtu100 Unfortunately both the clocks I own were limited run models that disappeared almost as soon as I ordered them. You are best keeping your eye on ebay - sooner or later something suitable will turn up.
Oh okay. Thank you!
All I can think about is Steins;Gate with that watch...I want one LOL
That's all I could think about aswell
same.
theres just something about them that seems so futuristic.
I want to build a divergence meter but I don't know how to do stuff like that. 😩
I’ve always loved nixies, glad to see you review the watch!
so if that video posted in 2010, that's means I'm enjoying your channel for more than 11 years now.
thank you SO much.

Great video and watch. When I started out in my career in Electronics nixie tube, CRT's, and LED displays were the only methods of displaying information. Even today I still love nixie tubes for many applications. Thanks Techmoan!
What I love about the Cathode Corner site is the clean early 90s look to it.

Brilliant & beautiful design. Due to the size, it would be even more suitable as a pocket watch.
Didn't Steve Wozniak have one of those in the new Steve Jobs movie?
+Nathan Remotigue now I'll have to watch it...and I really didn't want to.
+Nathan Remotigue Yes, the production company bought one from me (the maker) for Seth Rogan to wear for the film. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had written an entire scene around the watch.
nixiebunny1 that's pretty cool
Nathan Remotigue I was about to say that...
Techmoan It’s not that bad, and it’s available on Amazon
thats pretty neat and i agree, they look mesmerizing
I love this analog technology❤ great video!
Black ops made those creepy as hell for me
Mason what are the numbers
I was so sad to see that this was the only nixie watch, then i realised this was made in 2010, Surely someone must have my a better 0one in 6 years. Time to check and hope restored
I've reviewed two more since.
I didnt even know the name, Not sure if your one for playing games but in the original Metro: 2033, The protagonist has a lovely nixie watch and ever since iv'e been hooked, i think ill save my wallet from the grave and go for a nixie clock.
i figured it was old when i heard the Monsters Inc. reference
there is the new square one

Wow 10 years ago and the production quality was still amazing
I can't recall Nixie Tubes and I'm age 54. I do remember seeing them in old movies and had a LCD calculator watch in the early 80s. My favorite clock radio had physical flipping numerals that were lit up by a blacklight, but the flipping motor eventually wore out. I'd like to see a video on these.
HEY! This is like the Wozniak watch from the film JOBS. Woz "see how cool this is." . Steve "It looks like a bomb".
