Uv Ccfl + Blue Ccfl

aLpHaEv7 · 16th November 2004, 1:04 PM

hi peeps.

i currently own 2 blue CCFL and was thinking of getting either one or two more UV CCFLs to make my fans and cable sleevings glow. would the config screw up the blue tint much? does anyone haf a real life example to show?

my case fans are all 80MM blue UV reactive LED Fans.

cheers.

Been there done that, I had the same idea. I dont have any pics but its better to go either or, both just stuffs up, the uv doesnt glow as much as you would think cause theres too much light from the blu ccs. My advice would be to paint stuff with blue uv, and then ur case will glow uv if you painted enuf, cause thats what i did...

it looks sweet.

I have both blue and UV going at the moment, I have rewired all the led fans LED's to run off a seperate 5v volt line, so basicly I can turn off the led's in the fans from switches in the front of my case.
What I'm getting at is that during the day its all blue, at night the blue goes off and the UV comes out. best of both worlds. Both lights at the same time just doesnt work.

i'm gonna have two led setups in my case

one blue and one uv
both have switches on back panel, so its fine ....
