Again, anyone who has handled a CCFL before, will recognize the above picture. Plastic cubes on the ends of the Meteor Light rod provide a nice surface for the Velcro adhesive backing to stick to. This entire process makes it mounting the Meteor Light Kit super easy for the novice or experience user.

Installation:

The order of installation is not critical, but I did start with the PCI bracket. For this review pictures are way more interesting than words. The test rig is an old AMD 2600+ Barton, in a Bob Slay Clear Acrylic Case from Mountain Mods.

Everything is mounted and ready to go. With the ambient lights on and the case turned off everything looks pretty tame.

With the lights off and the PC turned on, the Logisys Meteor Light Kit comes to life. The lighting presets range from flashy to subtle. There are almost too many lighting effects to describe, so I have created a small video of the lights in action. Check out the video here.

Conclusion:

If you feel that flashy lights that literally flash" is what’s missing in your PC, the Logisys Meteor Light Kit is an excellent accessory. It’s simple to install and requires no maintenance. The brightness of the lights is remarkable, and is sure to fill the inside of any computer case. Overall, I was pleased with this product and award a final score of 9 out of 10.

Thumbs Up! Pros:
  • Excellent illumination
  • Wide variety of flashy presets
  • Can be set to “solid on” for those days where you aren’t feeling too flashy
  • Easy install
  • Price
 
Thumbs Down! Cons:
  • It’s too easy to confuse the LED processor box with a CCFL inverter
  • No documentation included in package
