Introduction
From the manufacturer Sharkoon (http://www.sharkoon.com):
CCFLs by Sharkoon CaseMod are best suited for the interior lighting of PC systems. With an inverter it is hooked up to an unused 4-pin plug of the power-supply and is ready for use immediately. Thanks to adhesive Velcro strips, the installation of the 30 cm long CCFL is very simple.

- Starter Kit with a CCFL, adhesive Velcro strips, dual-inverter
- 2 in 1 Kit with 2 CCFLs of the same color, adhesive Velcro strips, dual-inverter
- Upgrade Kit for completing the starter kit or for expanding already existing systems with just 1 CCFL, adhesive Velcro strips - Colors: blue, green, yellow, red, violet, UV, RGB, white
