Review on πŸ”† EShine 20 Inch LED Dimmable Under Cabinet Lighting - Hand Wave Activated, Touchless Dimming Control - Cool White 6000K by Keith Montague

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazingly well designed and effective under cabinet lighting with convenient on/off switches

I was skeptical about these lamps. They seemed too basic to work as well as all 5 star reviews but I ordered them anyway and tried them and was surprised - they work great. Kitchen remodeled in 2009 - full dishes, soffit removal, plumbing relocation, reinstalling electrical outlet. , floor-to-ceiling cabinets and a tiled rear wall, I didn't want to cut holes, pinch cables and install new switch sockets, but cabinet lighting. Two 20" EShine bulbs were perfect for my purposes. Each installed in under ten minutes, and most of the time was spent attaching additional wires to the bottom of the cabinet. ProSimple designEasy installationHighly efficient motion-activated on/off switch. The light stays on until you put your hand under the sensor to turn it off 3M Adhesive Strips - High quality full length self-adhesive mounting strips plus small clips with 3M adhesive for hanging the optional power cord Goes beautifully with my black cabinets and silver backsplash. Flexibility is There are two power inputs on the strip - one is permanently on and the other activates the motion switch This is ideal if you already have switched outlets installed and wish to bypass the motion sensor Comes with hard mounting screws if you prefer these to adhesive strips .Con There is no w Real "against" but there is a very small suggestion. A small nylon zip tie for tying the harness to secure it firmly to the adhesive clips helped me with each light - it would have been nice to include one with each strip. You can use coiled wire, but they lack the strength of a nylon zip tie. Therefore, these inexpensive LED lights are easy to install, have an elegant motion switch interface, and look great. Highly recommended - hope this helps! Tretjak
