The IN12 Nixie Tube Clock uses genuine, discontinued Soviet-era IN-12 Nixie tubes for its warm orange digits, housed in a slim black walnut body with an angled front. Unlike many Nixie kits, it adds modern controls: copper touch buttons, an infrared remote and Bluetooth for setting time, alarms and display schedules. It draws under 3W from 5V DC.
