our old house had two led strips that plugged into outlets so we would flip two switches to turn them on in the evening and shut them off at night but the strip would not work in the new house because the cabinets are different heights and depths i paid 12 for each rechargeable light so 24 per two pack i bought just 2 lights to make sure we liked them then ordered 10 more we have used them for a month and like them brightness is good very easy to install some reviews complained about the mount falling off but not an issue maybe they did not put them on correctly i set one light to max brightness and it lasted 10 hours yes its a pain to turn on 12 switches every evening but that only takes 30 seconds we end up charging 34 lights each day so i bought a maxlax usb charger station10port 50w10a for 12 so theres enough ports to also charge two phones and other gadgetsinstall cabinets are wood but rather than use the screws to mount the plates i stuck the sticky side of the plates to the wood after you remove the plastic from the two mounts put the mounts on the back of the light light is held to mounts by a magnet with the sticky side up then get the light in place under the cabinet and push up on the whole thing light with mounts attached and the mounts will stick do not try to attach mounts without the light because its impossible to line them up correctly i wanted each light two inches from the front edge of the cabinet so every time i stuck my hand under there the switch would be in the same place i taped a 2 inch scrap of wood under the cabinet and mounted the light right next to it that also kept the lights straight after the first light i did not even bother with the tape i just held the block in place then smushed the mounts to the cabinet after they are charged i put them back under the cabinet with the switch always on the right side so i do not have to guess which end to look for the switch onspecs lights are 10 inches long and 8 inches of that is the leds they have a low profile so you do not see them under the cabinet when we found we had to charge the lights every few days we were hoping for once a week i looked into the 1800 mah spec which is some measure of the battery and i found similar lights with up to 5000 mah but they had the exact same lasts up to 8 hours on max brightness i think because they had more leds or put out more light the battery was better but it did not extend the max time before needing a charge i finally found a light about the same size with a 4200 mah battery that lasts 20 hours but its 20so the drawbacks are turning on and off so many switchs and having to charge them but it only took a couple minutes to install one light i installed all 12 in less than an hour i guess i could have bought one 20 inch light for the bigger cabinets and had three less switches but these were a good price these would be perfect for use in a pantry closet over the utility sink in the laundry room not really bright enough to put over a workbench but if you set them to auto every time you open the pantry door or use the sink in the laundry room you can see what youre doing and with the light on auto it should only need to be charged once or twice a month
