DeeAnn Smith on Jun 13, 2016Your local hardware has a variety of LED lights for under the cabinet. We installed some and it took about 1 hour for 4 lights.Helpful Reply

Kerry on Jun 13, 2016There are LED under-cabinet lights that use so little energy, I keep them on all the time 24/7. The bulbs last for 50,000 to 100,000 hours so don't worry about them ever burning out. They also come with a dimmer to get the level you want. Works like a night light and helps ward off snoopers. BE SURE to see them working in the store to choose the color of the light you want!! If not available, they may have a color index number on the box. If so stay under 3000K degrees Kelvin. 2700K is best if you want the bright white look of Halogen incandescent. At 3500K will start to look like coolwhite fluorescents. Above 4000K will definitely have a blue hue to it. These cost around $30-40 but will last forever.Helpful Reply

Stamatis on Jun 13, 2016At first we should know if there is an electric line available. If so, then you can buy from any shop which sells electric stuff, halogen lambs according to the length of your cabinet. If not, you should think buying portable self adhesive led lambs with battery.Helpful Reply

Ros on Jun 13, 2016You can buy lengths of LED lights.However we had to have an electrician to fit ours correctly with an adaptor in an upper cabinet or on top of it.Helpful Reply
