I have an old IN 16 Nixie Kit that I got off Ebay. I ran into issues with the power and abandoned it on the shelf 6 years ago. Now I canāt find the papers that came with it but found all the parts. The board has āLonsdale2 06/08ā printed on it but google only shows me someone else trying to find the instructions. I have a feeling the variable power supply I got back then was the issue but I cant find any info on this kit to start the project back up.
As you can see all I have is the power components soldered on but my volt meter was not giving me the desired output (from what I remember) and I didnāt want to go any further till I figured that outā¦then life happened and it was forgotten about.

Iāll bet the instructions for most of the kits would give you enough info for that power supply.

Can you spare the last one, thinking of fiddling with one myself. You at the Space anytime?
Sorry, all gone - maybe @malcolmputer will part with one. Theyāre actually still not terribly pricey: https://goo.gl/9RzPVs
