Cheap, Silly Lighting Mod Anyone?

[DaftBehemoth]

Update us with the case lights. I have this like anti theft thing in the back of my CM storm Scout 2 I imagine would be easy to fit the cord through.

 

What section did you find these in btw?

I should be going back to get another set soon, so I'll post about the case lighting as soon as I get around to it.

 

And they were with the light bulbs, right next to the beer. lol

...logic?

Maybe I should get these for my case. Is there a way to wire them to a Molex connector? Also, can they be cut to length?

They can be cut to length, but I don't know how you would power these off molex. You'll have to dish out the money for the Bitfenix Alchemy LED strips for something like that. I think Phobya has an offering too.

I was thinking about NZXT's HUE, but they are difficult to get. Newegg has none, but Micro Center has 3.

Ah yeah that seems like a more elegant option for case lighting. Hopefully you can find a good deal

it looks freakin sweet dude! VERY nice job!

 

one question, 

 

is it sectioned off? i only need around 100cm of a strip but i dont want to toss the rest out by cutting it?

It comes with about 6 2ft sections that can also be cut to length at certain points in the strip.

Thanks! It's a simple 2 monitor vertical stand from Monoprice. It's a little finicky to put together, but once you have it all in once piece, it's sturdy and highly adjustable.

This would actually work pretty well for that, since you don't have to use both mounts, though you may need something with a smaller base. Something like this:

Phobya's high density offering is amazing for inside cases because there isnt much room for the light to diffuse since everything is so close unlike backligting your monitor. I showed them to my friend and he immediately  ordered 4 strips for his side panel with window. When he received them and got them installed i bought the same ones for my rebuild.

Has anyone told you that you sound a little bit like WoWCrendor? On another note those look amazing I might have to pick some up when I get my triple monitors in a couple months.

Off to costco I go!

I can't say that I've heard that name, but I checked out his videos and even I can tell he sounds a lot like me... it's uncanny.

Awesome! Enjoy!

O I forgot to post these links since its technically even better than just a white backlight.

 

There is the Lightpack which looks really promising and im super bummed I didnt have money to get in on the kickstarter back when it was going. And there is the MadCatz Cyborg AmbX which uses some tech used in theaters and super high end home theaters and stuff. I personally dont like the implementation of the lighting and from what I head is nto too compatible with everything.

Slightly more expensive than Costco, but totally worth it
