    Ok...just had a very bad experience. I ordered a UV cathode from Cool Case Mods on Friday, it arrived Monday....but was snapped in half!!Good 'ol royal mail. A quick call to CCM & a replacment bulb was on it's way, recieved today, installed...everything was dandy....sat watching the world cup this morning with my PC running in the background....I hear a "zzz" and my PC switches of. So I unplug the powercord take the side of & hey presto!! the Inverter (which dosent have any protective seal! ) had come unstuck from the velcro patch that was supplied, landed on my UV cathode......and broke it clean in 2!! Then it must have shorted out my pc. Arse!

    lol! Go for summat a bit less breakable next time mate
    Kinda your own fault though, never stick the inverter underneath somthing. Allways stick it to somthing smooth, and on the bottom of your case

    I'm gna buy some tomoro :)
    :p
