Lights in your case

Yeah they will. It's REALLY easy to hook up a switch -- a good looking one or a very simple 20 cent radio shack job. Your lights will last a lot longer. Although I was told Sunbeam brand was the best, these Vantec lights I picked up at Fry's (2 12" on a single inverter for $14) are very bright and well made.
If you buy a cheap light, it will not last long. I had one burn out on me after a month. The sunbeam has lasted almost a year. My 4 inch (for the inside door of my Antec case), looks brand new.

The lights in my server have been on for 4.5 months 24/7 and still light the store with an eerie blue glow at night. They're bigfootcomputers house brand.
The rest of my cathodes are el cheapo ones that came free with $50 cases, one of them burnt out in the first week but the other nine still look the same as they used to. They run about 12 hours a day average.
