    Thanks Steve..but I dont think that discussion is what I am looking for. I just want some under counter light for my kitchen. I have flourescent tubes screwed in right now. I am curious about "puck lights"? but I dont even know what i am talking about. I am not going to rewire anything, do those little battery operated stick on things really work? Amanda is this what you are talking about too?

    OK, I think maybe your best bet may be something like this: http://tinyurl.com/79qwqpf They run on AAA batteries, so you could just get a couple of sets of rechargeables and keep them running. The main complaint I have heard with these is that they go through batteries fairly quickly, but I guess that is a tradeoff for not wanting to rewire the lights.

    Sorry Bernice, I missed your response. I don't know if Home Depot carries this, but you can order anything for in-store pickup and you are not required to keep anything you don't like.
