Neon light clocks
can help you enhance the look of any room. Colorful neon light clocks use the
simple miracle of neon gas and can liven up any room in your home or office.
Neon light clocks have a long life neon filled tube needing nothing more than
battery power. The quartz crystal movement ensures accurate time keeping.
Neon
clocks can be found in a variety of themes and styles that make a great gift or
an addition to a game room or man cave. Neon is a rare gas that occurs
naturally in Earth's atmosphere. One of the noble gasses, neon is inert though
it reacts to the application of electrical charges. The result is the
characteristic orange or reddish glow commonly seen in neon advertising lights.
The
term neon light is a little misleading since other inert noble gasses such as
xenon are often combined with neon to produce various colors. Neon lights have
been around since the early 1900s and became a common a part of the Art Deco
design movement.
Neon
is extracted through a process called fractional distillation, a method of
separating chemical compounds. Ambient air, which contains the gasses commonly
found in Earth's atmosphere, is first cryogenic ally frozen creating a liquid.
Neon is then extracted from the liquefied air.
