maybe if ya pulled the led strip out and used a can of window FROST on the leds MAYBE it would help...

The frosting on the leds helps to diffuse the light to creat a better cast....... I've had mixed results with that.

I used to have an led board like the one Velocity on ebay sells and while it was white, it was freakin dimm.... So I ended up taking a set of these:

that I had left over (swapped out for smt tower units) and removed the led's from the bulb base. I then soldered the two together and made this:

and this is what it looks like lit:
