Neat idea. Would be really cool if you just added a small lip on the front/top of the shelf, and hid the LEDs behind that. This would make for a great little keyboard light for those of us with slide out keyboard drawers.

Liar! I'm looking at pictures of some copper tops, nonrechargeables. Cool project. Think I might try this, but drill holes in from the side that I want to stick the LEDs on and seat the light itself inside the hole. This would hide the wire as well...just have to find a good spot for the battery pack.
