- Lots of progress from when I first got it (see Part 1 • Solari Udine Dator 10 ... ). The Solari Dator 10 is all cleaned up, flip panels re-attached, adjusted and synchronized properly, lighting repaired, and converted to 110V. Several arbors and levers were stuck, but nothing major that couldn't be taken of by readjustment and lubrication without too much major dismantling. Except for the date mechanism which I still need to take completely apart. The motor is hooked up to a master pulse generator, and the minutes, hours and day of the week now work perfectly. It didn't disappoint, it's already a mesmerizing spectacle to watch it work.
I get it wrong again in my commentary, the clock pulse generator is not from the UK at all, it is from PIEXX in New Hampshire:

Those tubes illuminate it perfectly, what a very neat piece of engineering.
An amazing piece of design and technology! Fabulous.
I have just acquired this wonderful clock. I can't seem to remove the back of it. Is there a latch? I can't see one. Thanks for your help.
I have a Boselli Icon 30 flip clock that's driven with 24V impulses of alternating polarity. Or was, because the coil and the fork-like iron core that goes with it are sadly missing. I was wondering if these 'Italians' share the same Lavet-type motor? I need some specs as to the resistance of the coil and the wire gauge so that I can make my own replacement part (I suppose I can strip the core part from an old transformer). Can you help me out?
No brasil tem desses relogio a onde posso encotra deles
Not Street lights! Railways use 160 V so I think it was on a train station.
That would explain it! Thanks for the tip.
@@CuriousMarc I found the factual reason: it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribuzione_di_energia_elettrica Atthe end of the article there is a list of historic voltages in Italy. It was street illumination in the end.
How old?
Made in 1957.
62 years old!!! Bravo!!! :)
Also at when clock hits 25:00 hours it should roll over to 1:00 hours
