Question About Logisys Cathodes

[xbadwolfx]

Ok, so.

I only have 1 connector left on my power supply. I wanted to buy cathodes for my case.


Logisys sells two types of cathodes. Singles and doubles.

Here is a picture of the connectors on the dual cathode kit.

And here is a picture of the connector for the single cathode kit.

Do these require 2x 4-pin connectors? Does the dual kit require 2x 4-pin connectors? (it looks like there are 2x 4 pin connectors in both pictures)

The look like pass through molexes... you connect one end of the PSU's molex to one open end, then you use the other end and connect it to whatever... (HDD, DVD Drive, ect)

Yes exactly.

<A little off topic>

How do you setup "Cathodes" ?
Like install them.
Will it look good in a case without a window? (Antec Sonata III)

pointless in a case with no window unless you open the side and leave it off.

a window isnt that hard to put in. just get a dremel and a ruler and mark one out and cut it.

you dont install cathodes. you plug them in, and they turn on when the power is on.

Okay.
Hmm install a window interesting.. but to hard for me.
Do i have to mount them somehow? To keep them from moving of course.

Manual. Probably not. LED Case fans would give you the same result, if not better.

I think that kit comes with velcro, it's pretty convenient.

Really?
Sounds like a plan. Lol.
I have 2 LED fans in my other case their quite loud though.

Sounds convenient!
Maybe i'll get some in my next build.

Thanks guys.

Sorry for hi-jacking.

I don't trust Logisys. I'd go with another company.
