Review on Dimmable Under Cabinet LED Strip Lights - 13ft Flexible White Tape Lighting Kit for Kitchen Cabinets, Closet Shelf, Desk - Easy Fold Corners, 6000K, Under-Counter Light Fixture by Sandra Egan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Be careful with the surface they are placed on.

This is my second cabinet light after 7 years with another brand. Also a second try with mirror lights. Here's what I've learned so far. Surface and direction are crucial. If you stick the lights on a rough surface, the app will not work unless the direction changes. He wants to be tight. I glued light strips to the painted "outside" of the mirror so that in case the glue failed (due to heating) the light would persist. Similarly, under the cabinet, I sanded and painted the entire surface where the light fixtures would sit, opting for a 'vertical' orientation rather than horizontal. This makes the direction of the load shear rather than rolling. I also plan to use a "hot glue gun" to add glue nails to prevent further sagging. I leave the light on for a few hours and it's easier to put it on sooner when the glue is new than a few years later when the lanterns run out of stickiness. (an experience).

Pros
  • 💫Very easy installation - It only takes a few minutes to install. The lighting tape under the cabinet is self-adhesive, so all you have to do is attach the lighting to your workbench. You don't have to pay anyone to install under counter lights, you can get fantastic lights. The adhesive adhesion is very strong, so the LED light under the cabinet is not easy to bounce!
Cons
  • Lots of things
