So far I'm happy with the lights. What I don't know is how often I'll have to change t hff e batteries.  When I had hard wired under cabinet lights I used them every night and enjoyed the ambient light.  I've only had these battery operated lights up for one week and I'm noticing that I won't turn them all on and I don't use them every night because I'm conscious of saving the batteries.  I don't like that I'm not using them. Maybe once I see how often I have to replace batteries I'll use them more.  I hope so.
