They can be powered by any 12V walltransformer (if the wattage is sufficient off course).
As far as I know there are 2 version of these strips, 60 leds per meter or 120 leds per meter and they can always be cut per 3 leds (so either 5cm length or 2,5cm length).
Some specs I've found on a 120 leds per meter strip:
Color temp: 2400-2700K
Flux: 800 lumens per meter
Power: 9,6W per meter
I think these leds would do a great job, because instead of lets say 9 1W leds I could have 120 0,08W leds, they loose lumens wise but beat the hell out of hp leds if you look at spread and if they are placed as close as possible to the screen they should be good. The disadvantage is that they don't come in the exact wavelengths we would use with hp leds...
