I'll admit I have not done this as related to MR but have used it for other creative lighting solutions. I don't think you need to worry so much about the quantity of light but the quality. By this I mean: I like the idea of the rope light for an alternate evening setting and would try a warm lamp in the flourescent setup. You might even be able to find some narrow flourescent tubes that would work under the shelf. When looking for the lamps they should have "degrees kelvin" marked on the package and if I remember correctly they will be lower (6500) is warmer (yelow, red) and higher (7500) is cooler (blue, green). Hope this provides at least a little help for you. <br /> <br />Chris
