I did, just got it together this last weekend. I will post some pictures soon; I wanted to wait till I got the glass install. Measuring for it tonight and ordering it tomorrow.

Those are pretty damn cool. It's not clear where the LED gets the power from. Is the power from a seperate lead or is it taken from the current through the switch?

I've seen that before and well... I think it's kind of cheesy. The concept is pretty cool, the execution is kind of not.
I dunno, I've seen photos to the so-called doomsday control panels many years ago and they're not really ever anything like what most people visualize.

NOTE: LED is rated for 3.4 Volts and the motherboard LED headers are 3.3V. This is acceptable
LEDs (ratings @ 20mA) Blue: 1500 mcd 3.4 V

Most switches like that have leads for the LED. This allows you to power the LED any way you like.

What the hell is wrong with you today HarumaN? You're a bleeding comedian today! Lol.
I pissed up laughing though when I saw that! People are still looking at me strangely!
I personally like the good old push button with an intelipanel! Not a smart strip.... an intelipanel! There is a something different!
