Kitchen too dark? These no-install under-cabinet lights are down to $21 a pair

Everyone knows the feeling: after (begrudgingly) getting out of bed before the sun comes up, you pad into the kitchen for your trusty cup of coffee — only to be blinded by your harsh kitchen lights. Well, a better way to get through your morning routine is with Lepotec Motion Sensor Cabinet Lights. All you have to do is pass your hand underneath them and they'll come to life. Illuminating, huh? But allow us to shed some light on another cool feature: their low price. You can pick up two on sale for just $21 at Amazon.

Why is it a good deal? 💰

Not only are these handy lights discounted by 35%, but the extra on-page 5% coupon brings them down to one of the lowest prices we've seen. Since you're getting a pair of them, you're really paying only around $10 each — way less than having an electrician install lights.

Why do I need this? 🤔

Under-cabinet lighting is a fantastic kitchen upgrade; it's perfect for when you want a midnight snack or are getting breakfast started before your eyes are completely open. These lights can detect motion up to 10 feet away and have 30 LEDs that produce a warm light up to 200 lumens — more than enough to see, but without that "cold" quality that fluorescent lighting has.

They're powered by a 1,000-mAh battery that can recharged through a USB cable. One charge will yield about three hours of continuous use, or an estimated three to four weeks in motion-sensing mode. They can also work as stairway lights; you could even rig one up inside your car's trunk.

The built-in magnets make these easy to install — they'll attach to practically any metal surface. If you don't have metal in your cabinets, the included adhesive tape makes for press-and-play installation.

What reviewers say 💬

When over 23,000 people rely on a product to help navigate their home, we start to wonder what we're missing.

Pros 👍

Ease of mounting + long life = happy customers. "I installed one in my kitchen pantry and one in the utility closet," shared one homeowner. "I am in my pantry on a daily basis and I have only had to charge the light one time in the past eight months. I have not had to charge the utility closet light to date. I have both lights set on the motion sensor setting, and they work exactly as expected. My takeaway after owning for eight months: Easy installation, fast charging, bright light, long battery life and great adhesion."

Another fan raved about how quickly these changed their kitchen's vibe: "Instantly enhanced the ambiance of my kitchen. I love not having to use the bright overhead lights, and I love that these are rechargeable and detachable. Great value for the price. Very easy 'install' (because it's like a sticker). Cannot recommend these lights more."

One couple said these lights helped illuminate their workspace: "We needed more light for each of our desks, and these are perfect."

Cons 👎

One user cautioned shoppers to keep the included charger on hand. "These lights were a great purchase. ... At night when my dog walks into the kitchen, the cabinet light activates right away," they said. "The only downside is that, as far as I can tell, you have to use the USB-C charging cable that comes with the lights. I tried using another USB-C charger and it wouldn't take a charge. All in all, I'm still very pleased with the product."

This final fan warned that placement is important. "My only complaint is that they are STICKY. Super-stuck to the wall, so make sure you place them correctly."

Psst: Here's another easy-install kitchen find, also on sale.
