Product Information

If you don’t need this as task lighting, it can also be used as accent lighting. Accent lighting is used to highlight interesting features around the room, and works great if your cabinets have glass doors or you use open shelving. Xenon lighting casts clear, white light but, unlike halogen bulbs, it doesn’t use a filament. Instead, an electrical current is channeled through the xenon gas contained in the bulb, causing the excitation of electrons to produce light. Xenon lighting is cooler to the touch than halogen bulbs and also more efficient, lasting two to three times longer. LED lights outshine xenon and halogen lights in every category except price, but xenon bulbs are the next-best option for brightness and lifespan. Voltage Hardwiring under-cabinet lighting may be complicated, but the results—free of cords plugging into outlets—lend a clean, neat look that’s desirable in a kitchen. This 120V line-voltage under-cabinet LED bar light system is ideal for those choosing the hardwired route, as its slim design in five different lengths (12 inches, 18 inches, 21 inches, 24 inches, and 36 inches) blends right into existing decor. It provides what users need for kitchen under-cabinet lighting and nothing more; the simplistic, minimalist design could appeal to those who prefer sleek lines. To buy the best under-cabinet lighting for a given kitchen, keep these important considerations in mind. Types of Under-Cabinet Lighting Under-cabinet lighting will bring your kitchen design goals to the next level," Herrera says. It enhances the ambiance of your space just as much as (or more than) it illuminates it.

Battery-operated lights eliminate the hassle of hardwired installation and don't need to be plugged in. However, the batteries will require regular replacement or recharging.

Various types of lighting come in different sizes and shapes which include circular and rectangular. These are some of the rechargeable lights that you can buy to light up the cabinet area of your kitchen, pantry, or garage. The rechargeable feature means you do not have to frequent stop at the grocery store for batteries. All you need to do is fix a schedule for the lights to recharge during the day, and that’s it. We spoke with Thom Cloppert, who co-owns Fog Remodeling with Jud Cloppert in Loveland, Ohio, and has over 25 years of experience in kitchen, bathroom, and basement remodeling. He says about 70 percent of his clients request under-cabinet lighting, but once he discusses its benefits, “I’d say 95 percent of clients have it installed.” Why is it such a good idea? “Under-cabinet lighting is indirect, not glaring, and creates an ideal countertop workstation,” he says. “Most are dimmable, energy efficient, and have multispectrum LED lights to provide options for ambience.” Under-cabinet lights must be plugged into an outlet or hardwired, or use batteries for operation. Plug-in options are easy to install but can leave unattractive wires visible that may need to be taped up or concealed. Hardwired designs, like this Enbrighten option, offer a neat, tidy appearance with no cords or the need to take up a wall outlet. "A hardwired under-cabinet light will need to be installed by a professional and is the most expensive option," Herrera says. "The plug-in style won't be as seamless, as you will see cords, but they are typically easy and fast to install."

The energy efficiency and heat output of under-cabinet lighting depends primarily on the type of bulb used. Though it’s a low-voltage system at just 12 volts (V), it offers the flexibility of two different power-supply options: One runs from the wall outlet, through an AC adapter and to the lights, and the other can be wired directly into an electrical system and then flow through an AC adapter to produce under-cabinet lighting. Having both options means choosing between a simple, straightforward installation or wiring directly into an electrical system to hide the cords and operate the light using a household light switch. The type of under-cabinet lighting—LED, fluorescent, halogen, or xenon—will determine its aesthetic and maximum efficiency rating. LED Lighting There are several different types of under cupboard kitchen lights including mains and battery operated. Mains connected pelmet lights are long-lasting and connect to your main power source, whilst battery operated styles rely on a battery throughout their lifespan. LepoTec’s 54-LED under-cabinet light has a number of interesting features that make it a valuable and flexible addition to any kitchen. The 12.67-inch strip provides 350 lumens of warm lighting that can be set to on or off like any typical light, but it also offers motion sensing. Movement within a 100-degree angle and from up to 10 feet away will turn the light on. If no further motion is detected, it will turn itself off after 20 seconds to extend battery life. This is ideal for those late-night trips to the fridge or to increase safety on stairs and in other areas.Talk about a bright idea! Bright light fixtures installed directly underneath the kitchen cabinets illuminate the countertops below for safer, more functional food prep and brighter small-appliance storage. We conducted hands-on testing of every product here, closely following testing guidelines and putting the lighting kits through rigorous use to help narrow down the contenders to the best on the market right now. The voltage of under-cabinet lighting is separated into three main types: line-voltage (120V) lighting, low-voltage (12V or 24V) lighting, and battery lighting.

The Bluetooth-enabled design can be paired with a smart home assistant, like Alexa, Apple HomeKit, or Google Assistant. You can control it with voice commands or through the Philips Hue mobile app. This dimmable light strip has six color modes and several customizable settings, like turning on when the sun rises each morning. Besides, they have a solid build, and users love the super easy installation process. Let There be Light Compact fluorescent lighting (CFL) is energy efficient and doesn’t produce a lot of heat, but it does have some unappealing issues. These tube bulbs tend to produce harsh light and emit an annoying buzzing sound. They cannot be used with a dimmer function, and turning them on and off repeatedly can shorten their lifespan. What’s more, because they use both mercury vapor and a phosphor coating to convert UV light to visible light, they cannot be tossed in the trash when spent—these bulbs must be disposed of according to Environmental Protection Agency guidelines. Halogen Lighting One of the disadvantages of these lights is that the magnetic strips are not very strong. I recommend the use of 3M tape on them.

I found out that if Iuse the Everbrite lighting for 1 hour per day it usually lasts for 3 days. I wish it was a bit longer. The battery is recharged using a USB cable. It is also very easy to install because has magnetic strips which can be attached to any metallic surface. A 3M tape can also be used.
