Lian-Li PC60 Modified By The Card Cooler
Cold-Cathode Light:
The Card Cooler included a cold-cathode light with my case. Cold-cathodes are becoming more popular than neon’s amongst case modders because they use less power, they produce less heat, and they are quite a bit brighter. The cold-cathode kit from The Card Cooler includes everything you need to get your light up and running. The items included are:
The light, of course, with the power connector attached.
The power inverter that will supply power to your cold cathode.
The Molex connector, with a pass through and a switch attached.
Some extension wire to extend your switch and the Velcro and standoffs to attach the unit to your case.
It is actually very easy to install the kit. The standoffs were adhesive backed for you to attach them to the case. They hold the inverter in place. I mounted it on the side panel right beside my light. The Velcro is used to mount the actual light to the side panel. You just peel off the sticker on the Velcro to expose the adhesive then stick one side on the light and one side on your case. They include spade connectors on all of the wiring to make it easy for you to install the extension to allow your switch to reach the front of your case.
After mounting everything, you simply plug the two connectors into the inverter and you’re set. Just power on your PC and the light show nearly blind you :)
Here is a picture after I installed it onto the side panel of my case:
