I did mine right after we bought the Winnie, I used strips mounted on aluminum because I didn't like the glue back strips. I didn't think about the thermal problems that could occur and just glued the strips with contact cement. I do not have any heat problems so contact cement or more likely the aluminum backing is acting as a heat sink.
I put too many strips in the fixtures(5) and so I installed a switch in each of the livingroom lights to allow either 3 strips(best) or 5 strips(operating room light).
Now I'm going to do the bed room and makeup dresser lights. I also want a smaller light over the dinette and will start with one strip and add more until I find the best computer light.
In the S&B I made an under cabinet light for the kitchen and lights for the shelves in the entertainment center. For those I used both contact cement and adhesive backed strips on aluminum. No heat problems from any of those.
I can't find my post on here regarding the conversion of the tubes to LEDs, if I find them I let you see them.
