Question for Clarke. I see you bought the LED strip lights. How do they compare to the fluorescent lights in the cove lighting as far as brightness?

I used the "warm" color LED's to replace the 8 fluorescent fixtures in the bedroom cove lighting. I used 2 length of strip lighting on each side and find they are very comparable to the fluorescent lights that were there before. Of course, there is no "buzzing" sound anymore, and I don't have to worry about ballasts going bad, and replacing the tubes on a regular basis.

I bought four 12 volt dimmers on Amazon.com (.8 amp) for $8 each. Used one in the living area to power a 24' length of LED strip lighting I installed between the valance and curtains. Provides nice supplemental lighting in the evening.
