You need light in your kitchen, but when it's early morning and you're trying to see enough to pour your coffee, the overhead light can be a bit much. A better alternative? Lepotec Motion Sensor Cabinet Lights. All you have to do is pass your hand underneath them, and they come to life. Right now, you can pick up a two-pack for just $19. Now, that's a way to light up your kitchen without lightening your wallet.
With magnetic backs that make them easy to install, these lights can go practically anywhere.
Why is this a good deal? ????
Comparable lights can cost a pretty penny, but these are 45% off, the lowest price we've ever seen for them. That's a discount that really lights up our lives!
Why do I need these? ????
When I go camping I am usually an early riser, up at dawn, ready to make coffee and breakfast so it's ready when the rest of my family wakes up. These under-the-cabinet lights are perfect for that. I can see what I'm doing without waking the entire camper up with a bright, glaring light.
They can also work as stairway lights, and can even be put in the car if you need a trunk light. They're powered by a 1,000-mAh battery that's rechargeable via a USB cable. It lasts for about three hours of continuous use, or an estimated three to four weeks in motion-sensing mode.
The built-in magnets make these easy to attach to practically any metal surface. If you don't have metal in your cabinets, the adhesive tape makes these press-and-play for you too. These cabinet lights can detect motion up to 10 feet away, and they have 30 LEDs that produce a warm light up to 200 lumens. It's more than enough to see by, but it doesn't have that cold quality that fluorescent lighting does.
Shed a little more light right where you need it with these sleek, easy-to-install helpers. (Amazon)
What reviewers say ????
More than 23,000 Amazon shoppers swear by these easy-to-install motion sensor lights.
Pros ????
"I wanted inexpensive under-counter lighting that didn't require hardwiring," one fan wrote. "These are easy to install with magnetic strips (included) and easy to charge with [a] phone charger. They are motion-activated, so [they] turn on when we are nearby. You can set them to stay lit if you prefer."
One homeowner said they work wonders in a dark basement: "I've been adding motion sensor night lights to bathrooms, but I really needed one in my basement — night lights just weren't enough down there. These are magnetic and rechargeable, so an outlet is not a requirement. I happen to have a magnetic whiteboard in the basement, and I can easily leave a C charger close by."
"It was so easy to charge and install/mount in the pantry and garage," raved another fan. "No damage to [the] wall or paint. Lights are bright [and] the motion sensors work perfectly in each area."
Cons ????
"The only downside is the motion detection is not very sensitive and not consistent," said one shopper. "I'd love to trigger the light when opening the cabinet door, but it won't do it 9/10 times."
There's one more thing another reviewer said they would change: "I only wish I could choose how long the light would be on, but it's not anything that is concerning. I just wave my hand again quick!"
Not a fan of cooler lights? These also come in this warmer hue.
