Hey Chris,

Thanks for the input. I am wondering why a neon bulb would include a 100K
resistor... To maybe lessen the current being driven through the bulb?
I'm going to have to check that out.

Appreciate your feeback.

The neon lamp works the same as a gas voltage
regulator--about 80 volts or so IIRC...
The resistor serves to limit the current.
