As well as the LED strips, we also have a great way of finishing the LED to a higher standard. Mount them in a slim line aluminium profile which has a frosted diffuser that snaps in and reduces the glare of the LED spots themselves. Mounted half way between front and back of the wall unit the LEDs will light the entire splashback and work surface such is their wide angle. The aluminium is also a nice clean surfance for the sticky back of the LED strips long term and acts as a heat sink which is never a bad thing to have.

E36GUY - I understand that you're the resident LED ninja, so if I may, a bit of a bone question. How does the power attach to these things? Is it possible to discreetly run a power cable to an adjacent wall socket? Seems the sort of thing I'm after, but I'm uncertain how it will work in practice.

Sorry for delay. Mind on other things this week.

You will need what we call PSUs (transformers) althoughost likely one to do the lot. This could be located under the pelmet if you have one making use of your existing 240v feed or atop the cabinets running an LV lead down to the LED

Who are you in real life then Smiler?

Other things includes baby coming tomorrow. Office is a little understaffed at the moment.
