Great under cabinet lighting

This was added to our kitchen remodel at the last minute. Luckily we installed outlets in the closets to power them. We drilled a small hole in the bottom of the closet to route the power cord. Ease of installation. We used adhesive clips and so far so good. Just in case, we did the same with the extra mounting screws. Our layout was to use two strips under each cabinet and this provides more than enough light. We used a low voltage wire in the wall to go behind the stove and behind the sink. Switch on and off with motion sensors and buttons located on some strips. We've added a motion sensor on one end and an on/off switch on the other end, so no matter which side you enter the kitchen from, you have a switch. Another feature we like is the delayed power off. Ours is set to turn off automatically after 3 hours. We bought an extra kit in our garage. We considered using a different door switch kit, but having been very lucky with the fixtures already installed, we used them again. So now when we open a closet, we just wave our hand and it's open. We also have these with a 3 hour delay which gives a great night light when we get home after dark. Very well made as we had no problems with any of the components. Since we only used 8 bulbs in our first set, we have 2 bulbs left (set of 10 bulbs). We then bought a set of lights and used the 2 remaining lights to build a very bright appliance garage. Very diverse! We almost used LED strips because we were concerned these B&D bulbs would be too thick due to the body, but they're hidden underneath and unless you lean forward you'll never see them.
