Jab-tech Sunbeam rheobus

[beatle]

I'm considering getting a new rheobus and the Sunbeam looks like a good fit for me. However, the writing on it looks awful, IMO. Taking a look at Jab-Tech, they appear to have one without the writing. I've fired off an email to them to confirm, but I haven't heard back yet. Can anyone else confirm?

From Jabtech:

Hello.

The rheobus's do have some writing on the front... Mostly FAN 1 FAN 2 etc in
blue.

So much for that. I may go with the PCMods rheobus if I can get a black aluminum drive bay.

Take a look at THIS ONE at FrozenCPU. It's the older Sunbeam without writing, still has the 20W rating, works great.

Hmmm, that one looks very similar to this one that PcMods is selling for $10. Still a ripoff if you get LEDs, but much more reasonable. Now I need to find a black aluminum faceplate. 🙂

I think the faceplate on the Sunbeam bus is removable. Therefore just drill some in there. And Pc-mod's $10 rheobus without LEDs (yea bummer) doesn't come with a faceplate so you have to use your own anyway.

Actually, the more I think about it, the less I want LEDs. They don't really serve any useful purpose other than to light up the other side of the room. I'm just trying to find out if the black Lian-Li bay cover will fit my Coolermaster case properly. PcMods doesn't answer their phone. 🙁
