Conclusion

Just a quick note to say I won't be using the usual dual conclusion format we have now adopted, as in this case they don't offer differing performance or justifications for buying. For cosmetic products the consumer base is separated into two groups, people who are willing to spend money on a obtaining a custom, or cooler looking case, and those who wouldn't spend money on those areas.

 

I'll be giving a single mark for the overall range as I feel its more appropriate, as I was sent a range of products and also, well, less of a pain to read ;)

 

As you should have picked up from the previous pages, I was very impressed, from first impressions through to being setup and working in a case. There are no large problems, bar troubles with certain cases with the CCFL fans, something that is beyond Boogie Bugs control.

Pricing is pretty competitive down the range bar the possibly slightly high prices on the IDE cables, though this is something found on a lot of rounded cables.

There are many things that I truly liked, the extra outputs on the inverters, and the USB powered neon's are a very cool idea. Boogie Bug have obviously put a lot of thought into the products and it shows through in a positive way. Its the small extra's, like not leaving out anything at all, the very nicely designed convertors, the stylish looking USB control units. Add to that the most important thing in my mind, that none of the tubes are underpowered, or offer weak light as generic neon tubes can do. They all offer pretty impressive light output, but have taken car to have the USB tubes, which you will more than likely run outside your case, not run too bright as it would get irritating. The UV tube, in my opinion, offers the perfect combination of light output to the amount of reaction it can provoke in the other UV reactive products.

All in all Boogie Bug have made a range of products that I really do like a lot, I can't think of anything missing, or that I would have liked to have seen included. Spiral wrap would be useful(and I recommend you buy some), but I'd prefer to buy my own in whatever colour I prefer rather than get a single colour included that will not suit everyone.
