Introduction

CCFL, Cold Cathode Fluorescent Light

In the last few years CCFL has been gaining popularity in case mod. It reminds me of the flashing neon lights advertising signs hovering over every downtown street in most Asian Cities. With the high acceptance rate by the enthusiasts, CCFL kits could be found packaged in some Mid or Full Tower ATX cases. The way the light kits are “packaged” to deliver varies style, color brightness intensity and applications are changing according to demand patterns. The veteran manufacturer, SunbeamTech is introducing another form of lighting support to further enhance your modding appetite; Double CCFL Fan Grill in 80 and 120 mm sizes and Round Cathode Fan in 80mm.
