For Stainless, MrChocky and others who want one of Yoda's clocks:
a. I ordered one from Yoda which I installed 4 months ago. I agree with all reviewers that this clock is an excellent replacement. See quality note below.
b. Mine came from a recent batch late last year. I don't know how many were left.
c. You'll want to do more than post up here about getting one. I think Yoda isn't monitoring this thread very often, so see the contact advice below.
About the quality of this item: It's completely first class, as others here note. The circuit board is solid with good-looking connections. The VFD color/size/position is 'original'. The auto-dim feature (dims when lights are on) works well. Clock accuracy is great. Yoda supplies the unit with printed installation instructions. You get the core of the clock (the circuit board+display assembly with 4-wire pigtail). Not included: time-set pins, housing, lens, coin cell backup battery. You'll re-use your old circular 4-wire circular plug after you pull your old clock's wires/pins out of it per the instructions.
Ordering/questions: Send Yoda a PM requesting a quote, or about availability including how many you want, whether or not you plan to re-use the time-setting black plastic pins from your old clock (I re-used mine) or any general questions. New time-set pins are optional. Yoda will reply about availability, price, payment, shipping options. Keep in mind Yoda has a day job.
Extra credit work for those whose old clock lens is scratched: With the old clock out it's a great opportunity to use a good plastic polish like the Novus product to renew it. I got that helpful hint from Yoda.

Hello,
Rich, thank you very much for this positive feedback and the
review about the clock.
I am still making these clocks and have currently a few on stock.
Also I took the chance and dropped PMs to "Stainless" and "MrChocky"
for further details...
