I have put five 48 SDM 5050 warm white led panels in mine when the ballast stops working. This only decreases the amps by 1/2 while changing the halogen ceiling lights to led is 1/10th. My 32 halogen ceiling lights drew 32 amps and with leds it's 4 amps. I have found the 5050 chips run the coolest. If you have the 3 light fixture in the kitchen, drill small holes diffuser under the switches so you can turn various ones on/off as needed to save power.
Many are using the led strip lights BUT unlike the panels I'm have problems with the strips having chips stop working and getting dim over time...less than 1,000 hours. The 5M strip I added under my awning has lost 25% of it's chips in less than 400 hours but at less than $10 it's easy to replace now that I put a plug in the wiring.
