Retro Nixie Tube Clock Reimagined with IPS Displays and Smar
Hey Indie Hackers 👋
We just launched EleksTube IPS Clock — a modern nixie tube clock built with IPS LCD displays and powered by ESP32 + Wi-Fi sync.
Classic nixie tube clocks are beautiful but fragile, expensive, and hard to maintain.
So we re-engineered the idea from scratch — keeping the vintage glow and retro charm, but giving it a modern digital soul.
Each “tube” is actually a high-resolution IPS screen that simulates the warm light of real nixie tubes.
You can customize colors, animations, brightness, and even switch between time, date, and weather modes.
✨ Key features:
Realistic nixie-style IPS displays
Wi-Fi synchronization + OTA firmware updates
Aluminum alloy body with modular design
Customizable display modes and effects
Perfect for desk setups, home offices, or collectors
We built EleksTube IPS Clock for makers, tech lovers, and anyone who appreciates a little retro magic on their modern desk.
