I'm pretty close to getting one of these $50 battery-powered tube kits and assembling it in a different box. The red room needs more props and I've been wanting to get one of these things for a year anyway. There's nothing like the glow of a real vacuum tube! Speaking of tubes that kill... I was disappointed to find that Nixie Tubes require such high voltage. So no Nixies for me. Also, I just ordered an antique lightbulb. Beautiful thing that almost looks like a tube and runs under standard 120V power (below). Amazing how the red room always seems to need more props right about the same time I want to buy something.
