This is another of the products that nixiekits.eu used to offer, but no longer do.
Great news - The NixieKits.eu IN-9 VU meter is just about ready to ship. It will cost 109 EUR if purchased from the website or 119 EUR from eBay. The device is still a kit but all of the surface mount components are are pre-assembled. The whole device should take about an hour to assemble.
