For those of you who live near one, IKEA has a deal on their LED strip lighting. $20, in store. I use one of these sets in my coach as indirect lighting. Ignoring the transformer, it runs on 12v. Used this set to replace the overhead lighting in my Avion.

Yes, Store pick-up only. Must be member to get that price. Membership free, but unless you are near IKEA, membership may not be in the cards. I can go to Ikea in Atlanta, Houston, Dallas/Fort Worth. Nothing closer. Used to live within 6 miles of an Ikea, 99 cent breakfast, whats not to love?

Tom,

We've got an IKEA about 5 miles from our home in Sydney and I got excited about these. Checked their website and they're $49.99!

I just bought a similar Sylvania product from Costco, white is not so nice,
but many colors via the remote. 12v from the power supply, $30.

Plato seems wrong to me today.
