Looking forward to seeing the LEDs in action. I thought I had an original idea in using the RGB strips - obviously not, since you're beating me to the execution! Can't wait to see the final results.
@ RensBerserker: thanks for the post. I am looking forward to it too. The great thing about this set, is that if I want, I can continue to add 16ft strips at will and potentially have the whole rooms lights controlled by one controller. (seems great for parties, holidays and such) I'll post pics of the whole process, but the finished keezer might take a while.
Ok, So I havent fully installed the lights, but below are a few pics of the different colors. We need to test them before we tile, to make sure the tile will still look good on the backsplash. Here ya go....

Oh, he has no keezer. He just wants to go through the whole thread and get to the end, where the project is done.
(We are in the process of converting an old fridge into a ferm chamber though. Unfortunately, the need has fallen off with the cooler temps. My ambient temps, with a straight water bath, seem to be good for temp control these days. But, when 100 °F shows up again in July, we'll be ready!)

Was this what you got? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004RZUX8S/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
EDIT: Weird the link didn't show up in your original post, but only when I quoted it - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0040FJ27S/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

@Jeebas: Thats really weird... when i posted it, i made sure the link was there.
anyways... yea thats the item, except the controller looks a little different (has more functions). But its made by ledwholesalers, but i think fulfilled by sunvalleytek. Seems they dropped the price a bit too!

Looks awesome! I think this is very close to how I would eventually like mine to look. But I think that every time I read another Keezer thread...lol
Since my wife gave me permission to put it in the dining room (as long as it looks nice). I think I need to get on the "who's selling a nice Keezer" list.

That looks awesome! Nice work!
Hey guys, it's been a while since I've posted last. I have been enjoying wayyyyyy to much beer! (not possible) but anyways, I am working on a total cost for everyone as well as some better pictures. I will also upload a video of the lighting as well.
Recently, i started a small business plan to make custom keezer/kegerators for people across the US and sell them via a website. Nothing is final yet, but the goal is to make it completely portable and have the ability to have a battery backup, along with marine speakers and iPad/iPhone docking station to take it to the next level. I want it to be a rolling party on wheels. Our keezer has been a hit with every single person who has been over to our house, and just from friends and family I have 5 Purchase Orders already. Got any other ideas that can help make them even better? PM me!

Gas lifts, little door to see the CO2 gauges along side or maybe inside the tap box (so running a gas line from the tank to the regulator and then back into the keezer), glass washer... Just naming some of the neat additions that I have seen off the top of my head.

What did you use to stain your keezer?
This has got to be one of the best keezer threads ever. Are you still around for questions?
