The light could be as long as 32". The plug will need to be on the right end as there is an outlet right there. I would need to hire an electrician $$$ if I went into the wall.

I've looked a bit at Home Depot and brought one home but it was not bright enough.

Thanks!!

If cost is a concern, a t5 fluorescent could also be used.

I do want something that will provide the light I want and be comfortable on my eyes.

If this is simple to assemble I guess I could find someone to help me with it.

Would I buy the components online or can I buy them through a lighting store?

Thanks
Ginny

Some assembly is also required

I'm surprised by the price but then I haven't done much shopping. The unit I brought home from Home Depot was long enough but the cord was on the wrong end and since I didn't install it I'm not sure about how I would like the light.

Can you tell me why this is so much more than the HD variety which was $30 I think.

Thanks again,
Ginny

The light is dimmable and extremely low profile given the output and that it uses 120V AC.

The lower cost alternative as I provided above is t4 fluorescent fixtures.

You can plug in all the portable appliances you want, and themn when the breaker trips when the toaster comes on you can unplug them.

They are portable and thus considered temporary.

A permanently installed light (even if word and plug connected) is no longer a portable device.

It is about making sure the circuits do not get loaded down with permanent items that will then cause overloads when the typical high power items are used.

If I decided to go with the under counter light I imagine if I use an electrician it would be safe?
