II. Measuring the power consumption

For measuring the power consumption of my Nixie Tube output device, I used a multimeter.

Voltage

I took 3 measurements. On for the complete Output Device

and one for the Tube, after the step-up module.

and another one on an inactive pin on the tube

Here you can see, that there is still voltage on the pins, even though it is off !

Ampere

Here I took 2 measurements.

This is the complete device

and just the tube
