Hi Lou -

Don't have common led strips vis-a-vis for growing, be we do have LED bulbs in the garage and kitchen (PAR style) which is fine. Way OT, but call me old skool. For lights in the house, I still prefer old school halogens/incandescent. Yes, LED bulbs come in High CRI and similar color ranges of 3K-2700K, but there is definitely a pop or 2 missing from even the most highest end CRI led bulbs versus old school halogens IMO -- I did the conversion in the kitchen due to heat output from the halogens, and that has been a tremendous difference .
