I need some interior floor lighting,
something like the lights in an airplane aisle.

LED or NEON tubes?

Also where to source in Canada?

I'd go with Neon Tubes if its just gonna illuminate an area, but if ur on the whole airplane isle thing I'd go with the LED's. Its basically all on how u want it to turn out.

If this was the 80's I'd say neon all the way. LED's are less expensive and are easier to work with in placement.

Hey
There are a couple of companies around that make flexible LED light strips. They look like rope lights but are LEDs. Side emitting fibre lights look cool too and can change colors with a color wheel infront of the light source. These are not cheap though and use lots of power.
BTW smooth nice looking trunk.
