Beware the cheap puck lighting sold at home depot. When they get hot, the
cheap plastic trim can fail and hot pieces of glass fall on the counter top.
Or when you put dishes in the cabinet a little too vigorously, the hot glass
falls out. I ripped all of mine out after about a week of this nonsense. I
also seriously doubt the UL rating on the really cheap Hampton Bay brand
lighting.

I am going to build kitchen cabinets and plan to install undercabinet and
inside cabinet lighting. Can someone advise me about the options? What's
advantage of using low voltage over 120V lighting? If low voltage is a
choice when a transformer is placed? Is transformer quite enough? What type
of bulbs are the best? What's the usual spacing between bulbs? And finally
where can I buy good quality undercabinet lighting hardware?
