    Default Laser Power Meter with Nixie Tubes

    Just received the old laser power meter shown in the link. It's a United Detector Technology model 21-A, with a nixie tube display that still works. I know UDT started making meters in 1967, and I'm wondering when they might have made the switch to the 7-segment LEDs I see on another of these units I see now on Ebay-UK. Anyway, I can't wait to open it up and straighten the tubes!

    Cool Bob. There's something about Nixie Tube displays

There is another that states that this has already happened.”... Douglas Adams 1952 - 2001
