Would you like to easily install extra lights under your Kitchen overhead cabinets? This Triangle light from Beacon makes it simple.

I frequently use this particular light when doing small kitchen renovations.
The beauty of this Triangle light is that you don't need a cabinetmaker to install a false bottom inside your overhead cabinets. With other downlights that are commonly used for this, in order for them to sit flush underneath they will poke up through your cabinets. And then you need to install that false bottom in your cabinets to hide the light fitting now poking through the middle of your cabinets.
You will still need to consider if the electrician can get the wiring to the inside of the overhead cabinets. The wiring can come directly from the ceiling if your cabinets meet your ceiling or if you have bulkheads above the cabinets. Or if your overhead cabinets meet up with a cavity wall the wiring can come through the wall. If the wires can come from the ceiling without being seen the transformer can be hidden in the ceiling.
I love my under cabinet lights - it makes chopping vegetables a little more safer. We don't want any fingers chopped off:D
