Tried and true fluorescent kitchen overhead lighting, now in a slim designer package, the CUFUN series of under cabinet flush mount light bar aims to please. Measuring just under 1" tall, these fluorescent light bars are capable being installed onto any cabinet and create discrete full volume lighting. Boasting multiple knockouts for easy hard wire installation, the CUFUN series makes installation incredibly streamlined. Protecting the T5 lamp is a ribbed plastic diffuser lens which can be taken out without the use of tools, allowing you to replace bulbs in seconds (after given time to cool). The CUFUN series uses an instant-on ballast which causes the fixture to illuminate the moment you switch the power on, no waiting. Included with this slim fluorescent under cabinet bar is the mounting hardware required to install the fixture and a matching size T5 tube pre-installed and rated at 4100K (soft white). Available in 12", 21", 34" and 46" sizes, we have the right size light bar for your next kitchen/task lighting project.

    Lights are Very Bright

    Posted by Unknown on Jan 31st 2018

    Lights are very nice installation is not bad. The wiring is tight for feed through from 1 fixture to the next. Careful planning and mounting makes it easier. I used #14. It just fits as the ballast takes up almost all the space in the housing. Remove the jacket and tuck the wires next to the ballast. At first it didn't look like they would fit, but they do. 2 screws hold the fixture up. Remove knock outs. Mark all holes with a pencil. Drill holes mount the housing. Install wiring. The ballast and lamp holder are separate from the housing. Makes easier install. I installed 4 light on 1 switch. And 2 on the other. The 34" fixture is 1 bulb.
