Hello, support guys. I bought an Ice Tube Clock some time ago as a birthday present for my brother, and assembled it and all works fine. The issue is of the display; the digit(s) at the very right on the display aren't very bright, and flicker from time to time.
I took the clock apart, and tried shorting leads 1 and 3 on the Q3 mosfet, and observed all the digits were brighter and the flickering was gone, too.
Is there a way for me to acquire a replacement for the part?
Thanks for your help,
Stormchaserjohn

We recently switched to a different MOSFET for Q3 that tends to perform better. Please contact [email protected] with a link to this thread and we can send one out to you.
