Those nixie tube clocks would be an awesome item to have if you have the cash to buy one, as well as a safe place to use them if you're concerned about the nixie tubes becoming a fire hazard.

I'm not even familiar with the series, but those things look amazing.

Do those things remind anyone else of a guitar amplifier?

You could just buy a nixie clock for around $250.

There's already clocks like these before; it's not new.

Where did you get the idea that these clocks are new, enurtsol? I read the article and didn't get that idea from it at all. This limited run will just have some Steins;Gate preset values.

Assuming each clock is paid at exactly $660, that's $19,800 total.

Pretty steep just for that, unless one really really wants it to be replica. Point is letting people know one can buy clocks like this now and set it. Some can even be mod and customized. |

How are they getting the world line values? It would be really cool if it were measuring some kind of quantum flux (a physical random number generator) instead of a preset value or predetermined seed value.
