I wanted to try out the UV LEDs and see how well can they illuminate the PC case so I got one today but it is just too bright. It illuminates everything very well but also it gives off too much of the purple light. I tried various resistors to dimm it down but it virtually stops working even with the smallest value resistor, very strange :confused: Are there any ways of reducing the purple glow? Is anyone using such LEDs?

These LEDs look very promising for lighting up the PC case. Just 2 small LEDs can do a much better job than even 3 cold cathode lights.
