I just found this, but I don't know about the company???

I was thinking that you could use three together and then pin them together with some long pins. The center cable would be backwards, but the 3rd would flip it back around again.

If you don't mind flat cables, I'll send you some.

Hey, did you see my cold cathode mod for the HAF yet? I think it would look sweet on your case. Check it out here:

Yeah I was checking that out last night. :P Definitely thinking about it since I bought green lights I don't really want inside the case anymore. I'm going to UV up the inside to bring out the coolant's UV properties.

Paraleyes · 10-11-09

That's funny. I'm thinking along the same lines as you. I just finished all my cable sleeving and it's UV reactive, so I was going to try to hide some UV LEDs here and there to bring out the glow. I may have to swap out that green 12" Cold Cathode behind the MB tray for a UV cold cathode. We'll see. Either way, I'd love to see those 8" Cold Cathodes in the front of your case. I think it would totally set it off.

I had a plan for cathodes in sleeving once, get some larger sleeving (SATA sleeving from MDPC or something), take the cubes off the cathodes and run cables through the tube next to the cathode inside. Would look quite cool and would be a good way to hide cables. Thought it would look good for like a fan cable running down the long side of a case (could use a 12"/15" cathode)

Not a bad idea but I think in the end you'd cover up a lot of the cathode if you had too many wires. I have WAY too many wires right now but I haven't even begun wire management. I bought my molex tools tonight and some black heat shrink but I need a LOT more and a lot of different sizes so I'll get that tomorrow and work on the cables. Mostly it's fan cables and power lines. I've also got to work on my floppy cable. I found an old EIDE cable so I just ripped in in half. It'll work nicely with the floppy cable I got at micro center. 3ft cable here I come!

I've been thinking about this since I saw oliverw92's post. I think using one of these 1/8" power blend sleeves over the bulb alone would look insane if it were a UV bulb. Also, 1/4" power blend type sleeves would slide over the tube and look outrageous cool. I also think you could pull out the not UV threads from the sleeves after it's on allowing for way more light through. These sleeves stretch 150% too! So in other words, 1/4" will stretch to 3/4"! I will be experimenting on this soon as I want to add some UV cold cathodes somewhere inside my case. I just don't want the bulb to be seen. However, if I sleeve either the tube or the bulb, I may just want to show it off! I don't know about running wires through the tube though. There's always a way to hide a wire elsewhere.

oliverw92 · 10-13-09

The bulb is very very delicate. Putting it in sleeving on it's own could be risky...

If you are going to pull threads out, why not go for normal techflex?

Paraleyes · 10-13-09

Because you could pull exactly those non UV threads out only so seeing the difference would be really easy and fast. I have the two 8" bulbs in the front of my case and they're protected by the side screens. A little sleeving would only give it some strength and armor.
