What type of under cabinet lighting is best?

1 Answer
What type of under cabinet lighting is best?
LED lighting is ideal for under-cabinet lighting since it is long-lasting and more energy efficient. Furthermore, because it emits very little heat when turned on, it is ideal for under cabinets. The best part is that LEDs can generate a wide spectrum of hues, from warm to cold. Light-colored counters reflect more light than darker equivalents, making under-cabinet lighting look brighter. If your counters are dark, try using a lamp with a higher lumen output to get the desired level of light under your cabinets.
