The cold cathode tube is finished on both ends with a clear block of acrylic. On the end where the wires come
out Memorex Modz has added white shrink wrap from the tube through the acrylic block and then out in order
to prevent wire fraying and loosening.

The cable is very well constructed, composed of a clear plastic sleeve covering a silver threaded loom.
On each connector there is a blue pull tab which the position identification (Motherboard, Master and
Slave) has written in white. The cable is quite flexible, and similar to most of the cables on the market.
You can also find the following warning on the Memorex Modz website:
"Warning: The flexibility of this product makes it more susceptible to breaking. Be careful not to twist the cable excessively."

Installing the Memorex Modz products was exceedingly simple and almost routine. All that is needed is to setup
the components in the case, and plug in the necessary power connectors. The blue colour on both the fan and the
cold cathode was vibrant and clear. The inverter on the cold cathode didn’t make the noticible whine that some
inverters on the market are known for in rival products. The fan itself provides a decent amount of airflow and
was also very silent in its performance.

Conclusion:
It will be interesting to see how Memorex Modz will fare in the coming months. Being new comers to the "modding
industry", they will be hard-pressed to offer more products than just the basic fans, rounded cables and cathodes.
Installation and testing was a breeze and the products install in the same manner like rival products currently
on the market. Overall, I really enjoyed using the Memorex Modz products and award a final rating of
7.5 out of 10. If you have any questions regarding
this review be sure to visit the Memorex Modz
