Lixie is a replacement of the outdated nixie tubes. The core of Lixie is the RGB LED, controlled by a MCU to display variuos colors. Each bit of the Lixie clock consists of 11 transparent acrylic panels, and the displayed numbers(digits) on it are laser cut. The light from the RGB led will be reflected by these acrylic panels, so the numbers cut by laser will be revealed by the colorful light for the RGB leds from the bottom. The numbers that the lixie displays are very like the numbers from the vintage nixie tubes.
The clock uses a built-in high precision RTC, and the time will not be lost if it is powered off. With the 6-digit design, the clock is able to display HOUR, MINITUE and SECOND. It comes in a kit style, with the supplied assembly guide, you could build it in one hour. It is a stunning and shining desktop ornament for your radio shack.
