Ratings & Reviews for Utilitech 8.0-ft LED Cool White Strip Light

Cool lights

I used one of these for the inside of a large cabinet. The lights, wires, plug, etc seem good quality, but the adhesive and fasteners are junky.

where to mount. I mounted mine to close to front and didn't get the lighting on counter so had to remount further in toward wall

Great Looking Undercabinet Lighting

Easy installation. Love that they are dimmable and trimmable. Installed three sets under kitchen cabinets. Next - get more for my deep, dark pantry cabinet !

Does the job

The is an excellent way for under cabinet lighting. It's easy to use, easy to install. The light is adjustable. The only reason I gave it a 4 is that you cannot turn it off without unplugging it. You can turn it down though.

Good Thing it has a sticky backing!

These lights are very bright and work well as under cabinet lighting. The only drawback is the silicone clips and tiny screws as mounting hardware. The screws are SO tiny that they are impossible to use! I am a petite woman and even my skinny fingers could not hold on to these screws, so it would be impossible for a man! Good thing the tape is sticky, but to secure it better, I used 3M Command strips and worked great! If Utilitech reads this review, I would highly recommend that they include st...

Missing parts

Was missing the plug and dimmer switch and wire on the lights was pulled out sent back hopefully they send me a new one that is complete and not used

perfect

Basic lights, not too white not too yellow, and great dimmer fuction. Super easy to install with tape already on the back on the strip lights. Plenty of cord. No complaints; great price point. I installed these in a gun safe quickly and easily, very pleased with the result.

Very bright and works great

I bought 2 of these to install in my wife's closet. I wanted a reasonably priced solution and these worked out great. I wanted something that would simply turn on when she turned on her closet light so anything with a remote control was out of the question (obviously I wired them to the closet light - disclaimer; I'm an engineer). The lights are quite bright and at a very high color temperature (I think someone said 4000k). I didn't use the optional dimmer (although I may because they are qu...

It's brite!

I made a light box for tracing and lined the box with these lights. The mrs loves that it's dimable & can see thru thicker fabrics if needed. It does tear apart fairly easily as the instructions say, use caution if your turning corners.

Easy

Uncomplicated installation. Replaced old type of halogen (hot) lights that constantly needed new bulbs. The tiny individual led lights give off an even, bright light.

Junk

The adhesive would not hold in place. The connections are junk. Lights only lasted a week and burned out.

Fragile junk

Taped it in placed. Turned it on and it looked great. Closed up the back cover panel to the curio cabinet and plugged it back in. Half the strip wont light. Touch the spot near the last working light and it flickered on. Flickered twice more and is dead forever. I'll be returning and buying a different brand

Bright and white

Love this tape light. It white and bright. Not a yellow tone.

Slowly Faded to Yellow

Bright White are now yellow and the tape adhesive is poor. My light blue walls now look green, ugh. Returning for a refund today.

Let the be Light

This is a great little system. I needed a light for my gun safe but did not want to take up space or have to modify my safe. This unit fits perfectly around the inside edge of the door and does not have uncomfortable light shining back to your eyes. Great option for your safe!

Works great except 1 thing....static electricity

I’ve used these for 6 months in our closets around the inside door molding and they light up wonderfully!! Well it’s winter and air is dry. Hence static electricity. One shock when turning the lights on and boom!..lights are shot. Going to install a motion sensor before the dimmer switch so no need to touch it.

Simple LED light string with dimmer.

No frills LED tape with dimmer, used to light counter space mounted under kitchen cabinets.

Total Waste of Money

Purchased these lights for under cabinet lighting for kitchen remodel. The lights are very dim and flicker constantly. Paid an electrician to install them and now I have to pay an electrician to remove them and install a different brand. Do not purchase!!!

Illuminated Dark Food Pantry

After first purchase, I went back and purchased an additional set. Wired power to SPDT momentary pantry door limit switch. Just open pantry door and automatic bright light so finding spices, etc is easy.
