Hi,
I was wondering what the best option for kitchen countertop (under the wall presses) lighting is.
My current kitchen has small fluorescent strip lights. The problem with these is that they make the cupboards they are attached to quite hot and I can't store food on the bottom shelf or the heat will spoil it.
I was considering halogen lights but I know they get quite hot too so was worried the same thing might happen.
The electician who is wiring my new kitchen said my best option is a single fluorescent strip that will run the length of the counter. He didn't seem to think heat will be a problem but I'm a bit dubious.
So, any opinions? What is the usual option?
I'd appreciate any advice.
