Sunbeam Fan controller

[Tiamat]

I was wondering if you guys new if the rheostats on the sunbeam fan controller are the same size as those on the vantec. The vantec fits under the door of my Antec SuperLanboy, but i am concerned that the Sunbeam may not.

Thanks! Also, is there a way to lessen the intensity of the LEDs? Ive seen some pictures of them, and i believe they would be too bright. Then again, i could just hide them behind the plastic door of my case...

They both stick out 7/16" from the faceplate.

and Yeah, they are pretty bright. I can't remember where or I would give you a link, but I saw where somebody pulled the led's back from the mount a bit (bending backward) and this made them more tolerable.

you can bend em back easily...just pull the wire back with some needle nose or your hands...works great

My Sunbeam Rheobus can be hidden behind the door of my Antec SLK3700-BQE. One nice suprise is that the case door totally blocks all light from bright Sunbeam LEDs. That is very cool, my Antec SX1030 SOHO case door lets light leak through all over the place.

My Sunbeam fits under my Sonata case door. I'm glad I have a door there because those LEDs are pretty damn bright!

I just replaced the LEDs on both my Sunbeams to ones that were not so bright.

Are you going to buy the Sunbeam from somewhere and, if so, care to share?
