I’d like to thank Victor of Bitspower for providing us with the UV cathode kit for review.
If your looking for an alternative to led fans and cold cathodes, consider going Ultra-violet with a UV cathode kit from Bitspower.
Bitspower’s UV cathode kit comes equipped with everything you need to light up your case. You get a UV cathode, an inverter that can power up to two cold cathodes, an on/off switch, wiring, and Velcro tabs with sticky back tape to install all the components into the case.
Bitspower’s UV cathodes are rated with a life time usage of over 15 000 hours, which should provide adequate long life for the user.

Below is a shot of the UV cathode illuminating 2 UV reactive fans.
The UV cathode kit was very easy to install. I had it up and running in about 5 minutes. If you like you can drill a hole in your case and mount the on/off switch, but that will add more time to the installation. The UV of the cathode lights up UV reactive fans quite well and is a nice alternative to regular led fans.
