Well got a 5 meter strip of LED's in yesterday so today's job was LED-ing the last of my Thin-light Florcesent.
Removed it from ceiling drilled out rivets and removed sockets and ballast, (Tubes went out a bit ago I've been using a portable lamp at this location, this is the one over the comptuer table)
Cut and spliced the strip into "Thin light length" pieces Wired it so all the negative jumeprs are on one end an positive on the other save for two in the middle I needed. Only had one short I found and cleared. then hooked it up and LIGHT
Lots and Lots of LIGHT, Nice COOL WHITE Light, the kind I LIke brighter than the Florcesents and lower energy use as well
Happy.. Got the reels of LED's from Amazon. that's Smile.amazon.com (Using smile instead of WWW means I get to designate a charity and they get a commission).
The actual item I ordered
Led Light Strip at Amazon
Took a bit of splicing and some jumpers thankfully I have soldering irons and such
