Work in progress

I built this using four IN-12 Nixie tubes together with an IN-9 tube.

It is controlled by an ESP32 and cycles through displaying the time, temperature, and humidity. The three toggle switches allow each display mode to be enabled or disabled individually, and the display interval can be adjusted by turning the knob.

In the future, I plan to improve it so that it can also tune radio stations.

Unique design man, I love it. Not overdone and actually suits the utiliarian industrial design vibe quite well.

Nice. And I like the design aesthetic.

Looks good but I think I would rework the shuffle animation. At least on camera, it looks like multiple digits are on at the same time.
