Something different for the modders from SunbeamTech, save yourself the time to spray paint your case fans; the anodized finish in 5 popular colors will give your modded case longer lasting luster look combined with LED effect. If that is not enough, they have additional LED screws to light up your case further.

LED Screws:

The LED light is mounted at the center of the "screw head", and provides high intensity result. The wires must first pass through the screw hole of the fan before screw can be tighen onto the fan. Sunbeam designs a special socket to connect the wires.

A 4-pin male/female connector is on the other side of the special socket.

As you could see from the above photo, you'd better plan ahead when the fan is mounted onto heatsink. When used as case fan, there is not much room left and the wires will be pitched.

The photo below shows the tight space; note the regular fan screw on the right is not tighten all the way.

These four LEDs give out very high intensity.... almost blinding effect.
