These are identical to the ones I use in my counters, apart from the +V side needs a wire silver epoxying in.
It should be possible to simply make a suitable clamp and you too can have your very own "Nukeduino".. 
Seller has lots of them, seems that he may also do bulk post discounts.
Despite people saying these tubes aren't sensitive, I've found that they are if run at 550V and the lifetime isn't depleted
that much as long as the current is also limited.
Seems that most of the damage occurs when the tube avalanches and a continuous discharge occurs not from mere overvoltage.
Also relevant, easily moddable for most counters.
