NZXT CB-LED10-RD Sleeved LED Kit - Red, 1 m

Pros: Mesh Covering Wires.
Plenty of Mounting Hooks.
Bright Lights.
Looks Nice, and Looks Very Well Built.
Dim Control.
Easy to install

Cons: Very Hot Resistors!
Mounting Tape is Not Very Helpful.
Grounding Issues.
Short Power Wire.

Other Thoughts: When i first open up the packaging, these lights seem really well built. When i try to mount them in my case though they started to flicker, and when i tightened the back plate on they shut off. Found that there is a grounding issue with these through one of the screws that holds the circuit board to the back plate. Causing them to cut out whenever it touched my case. Removed the top screw and that seemed to fix the issue. The resistors on the board also got very hot, very quick. Wouldn't be surprised if one of these burns out. Also had to clean the areas where i was going to put the mounting clips otherwise they stuck for about 2 secs.

Pros: I really like how this installs, just a pci slot right above my power supply. Powered by a basic molex but allows pass-through power to anything else. It has brightness adjustment and a on/off button easily accessible. You are able to bend it around and angle it to light up your case perfect. I have just about the biggest case on the market (rosewill blackhawk-ultra) and this lights the whole thing up with a nice solid red. Was really happy to see that this had a deep red tint and not a red/pink junk.

Cons: The mounting clips dont always stick the best but they give you a ton.

Other Thoughts: Great flxible lighting for any case, big or small.

Pros: Easy to put the lights in the case
Lights worked, and feel durable
Put off little to no heat
Lights connected easy to the control slot.

Cons: The lights are not super bright and all of the connections seem fragile, if I bump the switch to change brightness sometimes the lights will just cut off and not work for a day or so. The power cable they sent, is fairly short (maybe 5 inches), so I had to rearrange my case to get power to the lights, which was a pain but not to miserable.

Other Thoughts: I would buy these for a friends case, but probably not my own again.

Note: I am being pretty tough, and in general, these lights satisfied my basic needs, just didn't do much more.

Pros: Make my HAF case look good I ordered 2 sets got my case looking good.

Cons: The card the wire is attached to came bent all to hell used some needle noses to straighten it out, worked fine

Other Thoughts: Good stuff for the price

Pros: None just yet.

Cons: Unfortunately I ordered 2 and they were both dead on arrival.

Other Thoughts: I'll definitely give this product another shot. I do like the idea of it. I'll revamp this review once I get another set.

Pros: Top quality accessory. Gives off plenty of light and really sets off the case. A must have for custom rigs.

Cons: None

Pros: They make everything go FASTER.

But seriously. They work like they should.
Braided sleeve keeps everything secure.

Gives an fairly neat looking glow at night on the low setting. I like it.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: Got these because I had a blank window that came with my case on the side - I decided to jazz up the interior. Give me something to look at rather than a black and silver eye-sore. Red cables, parts, etc... Cause I'm fancy.

I guess I would buy from these guys again if I ever needed some more LEDs.

Pros: I like the brightness, nice and red. My friend bought a different red LED strip for his case, and this one is way nicer, and not really that expensive. My coolermaster Haf case looks alot nicer now.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: wish there was a way to add a second string of light, but not really

Pros: looks nice

Cons: The plug to the lights was actually not working, and can't return because my dad threw it away D:

Pros: Very easy to install and use setup.
Works well with front panel fan controllers to adjust brightness.
LEDs on a string let you move them around the case as you wish, can even cover un-needed LED's with electrical tape for a very custom look
Very even lighting.
Came with adhesive wire clips.

Cons: The resistors on the PCI bracket get hot and will smell of burning plastic for the first few hours of use. After they break in, the smell will go away. Not too terrible, but does make you worry at first when you fire up your build and smell it.

Other Thoughts: This made a great alternative to neon lighting inside my case. I have it going from the bottom-most PCI bracket to around the complete interior of my case, and it gives an even and thorough glow throughout the case without being overbearing in a particular area which is common in traditional tube/florescent lighting solutions.
