Wish my camera wasnt on the fritz.
I tried both the blue and the green UV cables, Green glows definitly brighter than the blue. It boils down for me the color of the UV Dye in my system which is green, so for me using the green uv was the way to go, but the blue is nice as well, just not as bright under uv.
Hey when you decide get them at SVC (http://www.heatsinkstore.com/ata133.html), you wont find them any cheaper ;)

In order to make a plastic glow in the dark it has to be highly sturated with phospherous (the same material that reacts the most to UV light).
So the higher the concentration, the more light will be emitting from the agitated phospherous particles.
That and green is seen stonger when seen by the human eye (compared to blue).
