I'll let you know in about 2 or 3 weeks once I am up and running, I am getting the blue one and yes I have UV light.

They do add color, but do not glow unless you have UV.

A well located UV light isn't easy to see in many pics, you just see the affects of it being there.

I have the visible blue dyelite, without UV it's just blue...
The yellow/greenish dye I had before "looks" fluorescent without UV.

I have the green UV dye in mine and it looks sweet under blue CCFL as well. I had the blue light in before, and I was too cheep to get a new CC. Lucky me
