What are good rgb lights that don't use a 5.25 inch bay? Also, what are some good white lights?

They have to be for a computer, parents think regular rgb lights could damage my computer.

check elsewhere for them, and I believe the remote could be selected in the options below, but it's a fairly standard IR remote from what I can tell, but that's the best I've seen outside of NZXT hue, which needs a 5.25" bay.

I know they won't, parents think they could short circuit and zap the pc.

Corsair has an RGB lighting kit and is coming out with some more RGB lighting stuff to go along with corsair link

Specs: 4790k | Asus Z-97 Pro Wifi | MX100 512GB SSD | NZXT H440 Plastidipped Black | Dark Rock 3 CPU Cooler | MSI 290x Lightning | EVGA 850 G2 | 3x Noctua Industrial NF-F12's

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it

All the computer companies do is buy those reels, cut them down and put cables on them for a premium. The ones loccilucas linked are waterproof too so there's no chance of them shorting, though my personal preference are ones with all 3 RGB elements in each LED.
