The biNixie Clock deserves a box with an antique look. But the
technology inside remains modern, so why not use a rechargeable battery
supply?
Without
any optimization, at 12 Vdc the biNixie Clock drains 82 mA with two
digits ON and 65 mA in stand-by. This means a normal battery pack or
2000 mAh would last between 20 and 30 hours. I have to identify how much
current each module drains so that I can plan the power supply and the
box size accordingly.
I would like to keep it running off a 3S LiPO pack!
