Features(For reference only)

1).12V DC powered with input reverse polarity protection on board, easy to be used;

2).High efficiency HV circuit, you get almost no heat in HV DC-DC part under 24*7 working condition;

3).DIP style design, Static driving, No Flashing, High Brightness, No blue dots; Pluggable design all NIXIE tubes include middle commas are installed via socket,can rplace by hand;
4).Support 12H or 24H display modes. Leading zero blanking is programmable.
5).Display date in all format: YY.MM.DD or DD.MM.YY or MM.DD.YY or even MM.YY.DD; Can display week info too.
6).Support a lot of different Effects: Normal/ Fading/ Cross Fading/Flash /Loop /Random Loop/ Scroll + Mix1/mix2 for displaying time (* Effects may will be changed in the future). All Effects support “SLOT MACHINE” effect except Mix1&Mix2;
7).High accuracy RTC inside, DTCXO (temperature compensated crystal oscillator) version, High Stability, Highly accurate. It has ±1.9ppm (Equivalent to ±4.94s seconds of month deviation) under 0ºC~+40ºC. Usually you don't need to set the time for over a year;
8).Simple setting by using 3 buttons only and supports IR remote control (optional). Also has a new SNOOZE button.
9).Three alarms with weekends ON/OFF support can be controlled individually.
10).Three programmable Auto Power ON/OFF mode, can turn ON/OFF NIXIE tubes in any time you want. This function can save tubes life.
11).CR1220 battery socket on-board for the RTC power which keeps RTC running during power outages. (*Prepare the CR1220 battery by yourself.)
13).Tri-colored RGB LED mounted under the each NIXIE tube. These LED(s) can display   pre-defined auto color change effects.
14).Store user settings in non-volatile memory.
15).Beautiful CAD designed acrylic case made using a laser cutter makes the clock look beautiful;
16).Can install Temperature Sensor(optional);
17).Can Install PIR(Human Sensor Module) (optional) to turn the clock ON/OFF by detecting the human body;
18).8-level adjustable NIXIE tube bright with Auto-brightness feature (it is able to adjust the tube brightness depending on the current environment).
19).Support Wireless GPS Module (optional), can sync time via wireless signal(*Need to have a GPS wireless time station as time signal sender);
