@kgamecarter here is C source of firmware of my divergence meter: pastebin[ dot ]com/fiTDLduj
look at lines 45, 48 and 102, there is delays in microseconds. First two delays (250us, 350us) tells to controller how long nixie tubes are in turn-off state, it's neccesary to prevent "cross-output" of numbers. Third delay (900us) holds nixie tube in turn-on state. If you change this value, nixie will change lightness. But be careful, very long delays can cause blinking.
@kgamecarter No, TLP521 have collector-emitter voltage only 55V. Nixie anodes needs 170V - 180V supply. Find optocoupler with at least 200V C-E voltage. And one more detail: these optocouplers are very slow, look at switching characteristics. TLP627 have 50us turn-on time, and 80us (!!!) turn-off time. If you find more fast optocoupler, tell me, I'll be happy)
@kgamecarter hmmm, actually, when optocoupler is "off", nixie is "off" too, and nixie have infinite resistance in this state, when optocoupler turned on, nixie turns on too and voltage drop on optocoupler not exceeds 55V, but this is true if we neglect transient processes. So, maybe you just lucky and short transient process don't kills the optocouplers. I don't sure about this.
holy shit. This thing uses 170V for it's power supply.. Disregarding the schematic, the whole overall system looks awesome! :D Can you tell me how much the entire project was overall? I might consider creating this myself. Since the blog is in Japanese, I can't really tell.

@2ad10man but I test TLP521-2 & TLP521-4 on 170V nixie tube. It's work fine all days.No crash.
Just Lucky !!?

@2ad10man I found why TLP521 was able to work.
TLP521 use 170V will be breakdown. That right.
But the new Electrical Characteristics is fine after breakdown.
LED turn-off, Detector leak 30V to Nixie. Nixie OFF.
LED turn-on, Detector 170V to Nixie. Nixie ON.
