"worked very nicely" is good!  :-)

DC CFLs are great for a whole room full of light, but anything past 11W is hard to get in a good product.
LEDs are great for a tiny bit of light.
An efficient inverter and an AC CFL seem to be gaining popularity for price, and the reliablity is going up.

You're welcome.  It is a lot more fun when it works.
Nice job following through on the entire project.  I know it was not easy.
