That's what I did in my house for all under cabinet, shelf, and toe kick lighting. They make the actual Hue strips look really cheap, dim, and too far between LEDs by comparison.
Reach out to them for bulk pricing if you are buying a bunch and you'll get better pricing. https://sowilodesign.co
Bonus, Mike is super helpful and will help design what you need. They even solder.
The Philips Hue strip light controller only puts out 20 watts, so when you extend it you lose lumens per LED. Not so with Sowilo's setup. They essentially took all of the good parts of Hue integration and made it work for more applications than an average Joe putting up one strip light.

The long ones won't be in combination with any shorter strips so it won't be an issue. I only have 3 extensions so far, but I don't see a discernable difference with one unit vs one + 3 extensions. I'll test more as more extensions arrive though!

Where do you get Sowilo? Is that brand cheaper?
It's more high end and extendible, but not cheaper for a one off strip scenario. For several strips for a project, or if you want closer LEDs or the ability to go long with no loss in lumens, it likely would be cheaper as well as being better.

I used the original hue in an older home and they looked amazing for ceiling and cabinet accent lighting. These are going to look great!
Have you found a good mounting system for these in a permanent installation like that? The little flexible strips are fine for temporary decorating or accent, but I think I've heard of people using custom metal or plastic mounting channels to create a more stable and finished-looking installation.

I also highly recommend Sowilo for longer applications and/or where you want better brightness. Since they use a hue controller, all normal functions work (e.g. light sync etc). If you're just doing a small run under a cabinet, you'll be fine with this.
