    Another blacklight 702

    Well, you all know how much I hate blacklight clocks...so I made another hybrid

    It's another 702 with an RC-7462 donor movement supplying the tiles. I love the glass viewing window on these as it makes it a little like an up-scale 705L.

    Great looking clock. I wish my 705L had a glass window, I've considered seeing if my hardware store can cut a small piece of thin glass, as the plastic really doesn't like being cleaned with anything and fogs up. Do these use the same neon bulb as the 705L for the alarm wheel illumination?

      Or you could even cut a new piece of acrylic if the glass route gets too expensive. Most shops don't want to cut a single, small piece of glass for one item. But, it does not hurt to ask...they might say YES.

      Yep, same small green neon lamp in the 702 as in the 705L, but an NE-2 full sized lamp will also fit. That is what I used.
