Scintillation X-ray Detector
A 150CVP type Photo-Multiplier is used here as a X-ray detector. Scintillating plastic is placed against the photon sensitive window and sealed from light with aluminium foil. An oscilloscope is used to show the electrical output from the Photomultiplier. It appears to be slightly more sensitive than the Geiger-Muller detector.

inside-a-ecf80-vacuum-tube
This is one of two valves used in old VHF TV tuners from the 1960's. Found this one had lost its vacuum so decided to take a look inside. This little valve actually forms a Triode and a Pentode assembly.

PLASM
plasma-in-a-bottle
Here is a short experiment with a Tesla coil, old wine bottle, and a vacuum pump. The bottle held up but I was concerned at the start that it could fail and implode like a CRT. Localised heating also occurs on the bottle walls to add to the stresses.

CROOK
crookes-rail-way-tube-fail
Initially I thought a DC supply would be required to move an electrostatic motor but it works with a Tesla Coil, so I tried a Crookes Railway tube. Still slightly puzzled why one works and the other doesn’t. :-) Fun experiment.

EARLY
early-metal-detector
A short video looking at an early metal detector designed for Vets to detect metal objects inside live stock. This one has a problem in the primary oscillator. It has degraded components due to its age but also shows signs of previous repair attempts. It uses battery powered portable valve technology. These valves use thin heater cathodes running from 1.5V. They heat up almost instantly and were used in early portable radios for a short period before the solid state transistor took over.
