Review on πŸ’‘ ASOKO LED Under Cabinet Lighting: Dimmable, 3 Color Temperature Options, USB Plug-In, Memory Function, Perfect for Countertops, Shelves, Showcases and More! by Victor Pinckney

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Almost perfect for under cabinet lighting

I bought four of these. You are fantastic. They switch between warm, cold and white and dim. I plug them into a USB hub charger and when I turn it on and off they remember their settings which is great! I just turn on the hub and everyone tunes in! One note: they make a high-pitched squeal/hum. It's quite annoying and I was about to return them until I saw another review that if you crank it all the way up the hum stops. I've tried this and it works. Setting them to their lowest value will also eliminate the hum. There is a lot of noise in the house during the day so I can use intermediate lights and don't even notice the hum, and at night when the house is quiet it's VERY noticeable. I just make sure I run them at full power or full minimum. It's not a deal breaker for me, but it might be for you. If you've ever turned on an old CRT TV and heard that shrill chime, those lights will drive you crazy. If you don't understand what I'm talking about (some people don't hear it), then you'll be fine! And finally, and it's not that important either, but it would be nice if the power on the button was a dot. Like a physical bump, a point, a notch. When it's pitch black and you want to turn it on, it's difficult to remember which button is the power button. This is not a breach of contract. I just put a piece of plastic glue on each bumper and now it has tactile feedback. Much luck!
