That is cool. I have been thinking about making my own LED lighting for my house. I have read that with the commercial LED bulbs like go in a regular light socket, they manufacture them so that they eventually fail so that you have to buy new ones. But I think if I can build my own, they will last essentially forever.
I want to be able to power them from the wall AC, though. Solar panels have gotten so cheap that I want to put some in eventually, but I still want to be able to run the house off the generator if something breaks down with the solar panels. And use less expensive wire with the higher voltage, rather than like wiring the house with #8 wire for 48VDC or whatever. :3
