Boost gauge display with nixie tubes
Dear boosters,
I am an electrical engineer making things in my free time. I am into old-school displays and vacuum tubes, so most of my projects contain nixie tubes or other vacuum fluorescent displays. Recently I was in a car that had a boost pressure gauge, and I immediately thought: I could make this with nixies!
The question is, would people that are into turbo and other mods would be interested in such a thing? The idea would be to use a standard 52mm circular housing (or 60mm) and use 2 nixie tubes for display. For reference, this is something I made recently for another project of mine:
If I find people that are interested in putting something like this in their car as a boost gauge, I could make a few 100 on kickstarter. But first I need to know if automotive people are as hyped about nixies as I am
