My LED strips are also just warm white, probably the same ones. Could be that there was a difference in manufacturing, more likely I just happen to have them in a spot that's more forgiving (or I'm more forgiving). Also possible that my adding the cream card stock brought it back to the warmth I wanted. I use them behind a light panel I built that's fronted by tapa cloth, that might also be helping the warmth along. I don't have any good pictures of it yet, I'm afraid.

Here's the thread for my home tiki bar, Balhi Ha'i. Not very many pictures there yet, and nothing that really focuses on the lighting: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic=47635&forum=20&start=0

Re: the shell lights, I'll try to get a few pictures for you tomorrow. Those are incandescent bulbs, though, just basic C7s. I forget what wattage I went with, I think they're 7 watt, they might be 3.5 watt. I started with 15 watt and it was far too bright even with the dimming effect of the SimFlame.
