Controlling the current by a more efficient means would involve a
complicated bit of circuitry.


Yeah, one little IC chip built right into the LED's base. It's called a
constant current regulator. Some of them with this chip in them will run
on any voltage from 6V to 48V or higher. The chip will also rectify if you
choose to plug them into AC. Superbright LEDs has 115VAC/DC led
replacements for standard light bulbs, the most efficient room lighting
known to man. A 3W LED array is the same as a 40W light bulb....

I'd like to see them make an undercounter panel, not these little strips.
You'd stick it up, plug it in, and not bother to turn it on and off.
