Help me light up my case!

[arrond]

Hi all,

I want to light up my lanboy. I could get a cold cathod or an LED Fan which could replace the current akasa exhaust fan or i could get both. Want do you think?

Thanks.

Arron.

Are the Akasa's any good?

LED fans will light it up somewhat.
Cathodes will truly light it up.

Best advise for cathodes - Make it so you cannot see them from the window.
Nothing worse than a glaringly bright cathode right next to a window.

If the cathode cannot be seen, yet lights up the case fully = Best positioning.

Wheres the best positions? Right beneath or a the top the window are the only places you could really hide them and then you will have to be looking at it side on at the correct angle. Or are there better places?

Ive got 2 X 6" cathodes and a blue led fan in mine and it looks great. My LED fan is a aerocool silver bladed 140mm fan with blue LEDs and lights up the case pretty well but not too much. The 2 6" cathodes help to illuminate areas that are too dark, i could do with 2 x 12" cathodes really. The sound activated feature also rocks lol.

I have a couple of photos of my eclipse with led fan and cathodes, should ii post them up?.

Yes please. Tell us where you positioned the cathodes as well.

Cheers.

Yeah nice pics, thanks for that. I think i will go for 4 x 6" cathodes as there not much room in my lanboy, i will probably pick up an Akasa LED fan as well.

Cheers guys.
