Nixies: stupid questions.

BTW guys, small neon bulbs should have at least 100K resistors (some use 200K) at 170+V or else they could burn out themselves or your circuit. I am able to multiplex them at 170v with a 100K resistor. Remember that the gas inside them will change its resistance until the voltage across the lamp is the sustaining voltage. A 200K resistor (which is probably better for long life) makes them look a little sputtery.

My A1As regulate themselves at 60V, which means that 110V gets dropped over the anode resistor. 110V/100000?=1.1mA. Almost twice the recommended amount, but I figure since I'm multiplexing... Still probably not healthy.
