Nixies return after a 30-year wait.

The nixies are back again

The last nixie tube was made in the early 90s, when this beautiful technology was replaced by lower-cost alternatives. But production has now resumed in the Czech Republic.

Nixie Tube Professor

Dalibor Farny

I’m Dalibor Farny and, for the past five years, my life's been all about nixie tubes.

There are two areas that have always fascinated me, electronics and creativity in the form of hand craftsmanship. So when I discovered nixie tubes unexpectedly in 2011, while aimlessly browsing the internet, I started to experiment with this technology. My first working prototype came in 2014. And today, I run a small-scale production. (But it's only small for now.)
