Thanks for pointer to IREDA product. Was thinking of this:

links to small .pdf files with more info)

but power consumption is 7.2 W Max.

Mike. Is this what you're using?

Was thinking of putting an Onstate LED light bar under spice rack.
Nice to see a similar/same light that draws less.

Thanks!

Neil.

So bright, better with an LED PWM (pulse width modulation, prevents flickering) Dimmer for $6 from EBay(inc shipping). Power consumption < 2W (160mA measured). Will be adding more....A few may have seen this in my white 2WD Westy at Syncrofest or Syncro de Mayo.
