Default ReefBrite LED Strip

Is anyone currently using one of these LED strips to supplement their MH 's ? If so, what is your overall impressionn/opinion ? Would you reccomend them ?
I'm loooking at purchasing a 36" all blue strip to supplement my 250W MH but wouild like some feedback form folks who are actually using them.
I guess another option would be to go with one of the DIY kits from RapidLED, just not too sure if I want to take on soldering with my poor eyesight ...

I'm getting 2 24" strips in the mail sometime next week. I'll do a review on them when I get them in as I don't think there are a whole lot out there in Canada right now.

The reviews I read on reef central were all very positive

A friend of mine is using them (2 - 12") along with 1 150W MH and since he put the strips on, his coral have perked up tremendously. He is planning to get 6 more and get rid of the MH all together. It also looked like the brightness was sharper with the LED strip than the MH. He is pretty happy with them.
