cold cathode lighting

[freddy]

OK ....for (us) guys in the UK ...


Maplin have got blue cold cathode tubes in stock.

RP 33 is the tube ...........£4.24
RP 39 is the switchgear ......£2.54

and i suggest a small (white) box .....they dont half give u a good belt!!!!
fk 73 ...................£1.09

all three inc vat ..........£9.27


the tube is about 12in and will lie at the bottom or in my case (?) verticle at the back.

also got a window put in today at autoglass ....perspex cost involved: cutting /fitting and perspex ....£5.00 ,,,(cash)

they are the lads to see.

this thing looks awsome with a thermaltake dragon orb3 sat in there.

darren suggested kustompc for cases , but i spotted round cable sets in all colours from £20.00.

PS its cold in this room now with that hsf on ....with the extra fans on board running 12 hrs ..........34c CPU 24c m/board.

A lot cheaper buying the cold cathodes from Maplin's than it is from a PC Mod outlet :) :) Damn, you have let one of my supply secrets out now for the cold cathodes :D :D :D

[freddy]

sorry darren! .....ps buy them quick small stock try your local outlet.

And for anyone in the US, I think bgmicro has them relatively cheap ~12-20$
