A Guide by Lepotec
Under cabinet lighting is a game-changer for kitchens, workspace, and living areas. It enhances functionality, adds ambiance, and elevates your home’s aesthetics. But with so many lighting options available, how do you choose the best type? Let’s explore the ideal choices and why Lepotec stands out as a leader in innovative, energy-efficient solutions.
1. LED Strip Lights: The Ultimate Choice
LED strip lights are the top pick for under cabinet lighting due to their versatility, energy efficiency, and sleek design. These flexible strips provide uniform illumination, eliminating shadows on countertops. They’re dimmable, available in multiple color temperatures (warm to cool white), and consume minimal energy.
Why Lepotec?
Lepotec premium LED strips feature high lumens per watt, ensuring bright task lighting without glare. Their adhesive backing allows for easy installation, and with a lifespan of 50,000+ hours, they’re a long-term investment.
2. Puck Lights: Compact and Targeted
Puck lights are small, circular fixtures ideal for focused task lighting. While they’re less continuous than strips, they work well in smaller spaces or as accent lighting. However, spacing them evenly is key to avoiding uneven light distribution.
Lepotec’s Solution
Lepotec offers ultra-slim puck lights with wireless controls and adjustable brightness. Their low-profile design blends seamlessly into modern kitchens while providing ample illumination.
3. Linear Light Bars: Sleek and Uniform
Linear fixtures (or light bars) offer a streamlined look, perfect for contemporary kitchens. They deliver consistent brightness across the entire countertop and often come with built-in dimmers.
Lepotec’s Edge
Lepotec linear LED bars boast a high Color Rendering Index (CRI >90), ensuring true-to-life colors for cooking and entertaining. Their durable, moisture-resistant design makes them ideal for busy kitchens.
4. Tape Lights: Discreet and Customizable
Similar to LED strips, tape lights are thin and flexible but often come in shorter segments. They’re great for curved surfaces or tight spaces.
Lepotec’s Innovation
Lepotec’s tape lights feature cut-to-length customization and RGB options, allowing you to tailor lighting to your decor. Their low heat output ensures safety around cabinetry.
5. Fluorescent Lights: A Fading Option
Once popular, fluorescent tubes are being phased out due to higher energy consumption, shorter lifespans, and bulky designs. LEDs now outperform them in every category.

Key Factors to Consider
-
Brightness: Opt for 300–500 lumens per foot for task lighting.
-
Color Temperature: 2700K–4000K (warm to neutral white) suits most kitchens.

Installation: Choose low-voltage, plug-and-play systems for DIY ease.
