I need to get some HeNe connectors. I believe they are called "Alden"--?? Big two pin side-by-side wonders.
Where does one find these ?

dead tubes, yes Mike they are Alden connectors.

I have a male I can give you if you want it.

cord still attached.

harvest females from dead supplies, I'm sure a member or two has one.
 
How many do you need? Do you need male or female?

Peace,
dave
 
PM me your address again. I've got 'em

No need for both of us to pay shipping, Photon

Peace,
dave
 
I have received several requests to provide these connectors to others.

I am sorry. I cannot (nor will not) supply all of you.

These connectors are still commercially available here

High Voltage Connectors

Peace,
dave
 
Dave -- Thanks for the connectors. The coaxial HV wire is nice too.
I will try to get the green HeNe running this PM.

I got the Alden connector from Dave today. The Green HeNe tube I got from ebay is 18.5" long. I have machined the housing, centering collars, spacers and end caps so now I will assemble it. :thinking:
Thanks again to Dave.....

OLD FART ?? :thanks: I'll take that as a compliment :beer:

Dave -- I started with 50 k Ohm ballast and it buzzed and flickered so I increased to 100 K Ohms and everything stabelized. I'm going to measure the current before final assembly.

Yeah. That big a green tube probably needs at least 78K
