Hi
yes, you've got it right, wire each to a channel and away you go, it's actually for controlling a multi colour strip allowing you to get exactly the shade you want, but it'll serve your purpose perfectly.
in a similar DIY style i've got a maplins (Velman) light activated switch kit which i have wired into my white and blue strips, it swaps from day to night automatically unless i have the lights on in the room, it'll also swap to night mode if i turn the lights off to watch a film as the TV's not bright enough to set it off.
A little mod and i'm also able to over ride it.
a great little mod for £7
i'm using a 2A supply which will suit 5m of the 5050 smd leds i use (£18 Ebay), so my 4 strips of 50cm doesn't push it at all.
they can be had on Ebay for about £4-6
