well, i have four or so cold cathodes from various PC builds.. and since its 12v dc, do you think I could splice em up and turn em on?
anyone try this, and not automotive spec ones? btw- they have their own inverters - cathodes use low amperage but super high voltages... thanks This post has been edited by mark_426: Jun 25, 2005 - 5:47 PM -------------------- If anyone needs interior stuff, etc, I'm parting whats left of my celi out. Just ask.

I'm also thinking about cold cathodes to my car. But what kind of switch did you guys use? I was thinking that I could buy a Sunbeam Lightbus to control the lights, but I'm not sure of how to connect the power cables from Lightbus?
Any suggestions? You'll find it at this site: http://www.sunbeamtech.com/ |
