4.16 RGB LEDs
There are 6 RGB LEDs, one under each Nixie Tube. Note that there
are a further 2 locations for RGB LEDs under the neon colon
separators. These are not supplied and not installed, because the
RGB lighting from the tube LEDs provides sufficient illumination of
the colon neons.
Start by bending the leads of each RGB LED as shown below,
noting the orientation of the longest lead.
If you follow the bending instructions above, then the longest lead
should go into the hole marked with 2 small circles at each RGB
LED location. Solder each LED and clip the leads short.
