Cold Cathodes on a desk

[DaveBennett]

Hey,

Seen it done on here before, want to fit some blue cold cathodes on the underneath of my desks in my room.

Thinking of going for something like this .

What I want to know, is how to power them, I'd like about 3 sets of them, under each desks and to daisy chain them and have one main power for them, but how would the best way to link them up and power them etc.

Cheers,

Dave

As long as it supplies 12v and the correct amps, then its fine. I dont know how many watts a cathode draws though. Find that then do a little bits of maths to find the correct power rating. Either that, or beg / borrow / steal a crappy PSU and jump start it. (Could try the local tip).
