Hi Guys , Can someone please recommend some bright LED strips which I could use as under unit lighting for my kitchen ?

Collingwood sell some which is wonderful. From memory it's about £100 per m.

Re: LED strips recommendation

The brightest out there will be 60 leds/meter.
I believe most strips that can be found online are 30 leds/m. A very important part would be to get reliable power supplies and decoders if you want to use an RS232 DMX solution for control.
Cheap 30 leds/m can be found on ebay. Around £20-25 /m.
