New LEDs in the Kitchen

Under the cabinets in the kitchen where the sink resides was woefully dark especially since one of the Thinlight 18inch fixtures was not working. Rather than replace the ballast for $40 I decided to upgrade the light to LED.
I ripped all the wiring, Ballast and end pieces for the fluorescent tubes out, cleaned the fixture with alcohol and replaced the bulbs with all LED strip lighting from LEDWholesalers. The white LEDs for the kitchen, living room and bedroom are number 2026wh on Amazon:

For the living room (or maybe the bedroom) I chose the following RGB (multi-colored) LED set and a remote controller that will change brightness, color and the main unit will actually change to the music! All we need is a Disco Ball and some KC and the Sunshine band!
Ordered from Amazon also and plan to install today...
