i think they get something like 15,000 hours or somethign i could be way off though

 

[mighty_chick]

mine are "Sunbeam Cold Cathode" lights and they are rated for 30,000 hours, which is roughly 2 1/2 years

Mine are cold cathode as well. You got any pics of ur pc?

 

[mighty_chick]

>EDIT<



thats it taken with my webcam...the ight on the side should be way up top but the glue keeps melting and the light detaches from the velcrow

 

[joxley1990]
