We are starting our complete kitchen renovation and beg your help with our lighting plan. We had planned halogen cans in the ceiling (probably 3 along each of the three cabinet walls). We are considering LED strips (preferred over xenon)for undercabinet lighting. I would like dimmable undercabinets if possible. I have also ordered a chandelier for the dining area (incandescent bulbs) and 3 matching 100w downlight pendants for over the island.

If we go with the LED undercabinet, what type cans are recommended? Would that change if we go with the xenon under the cabinets? Do you think 3 cans along each wall would be correct?
