We bought a small (3 light) under-counter set that is plugged into an ordinary outlet and installed the set in our kitchen. We love it…but after a time, it just stopped working. My husband replaced it with a whole new set…and now that one has stopped working as well. We bought a meter to test our outlet, but all we could figure out from that is that the outlet is delivering the right amount of voltage. What are we missing?
We’ve not yet had a chance to try bulb replacement, since both times the whole set has failed (never one light, or two), which leads us to believe it’s a “system” failure…
Bruce–we’ve never had the chance to change the bulbs yet. The bulbs haven’t blown–the whole system has failed.
More info for Bruce–after our first installation failed, we threw the whole thing away and bought another one at a different home improvement store, so if we managed to catch a crappy run TWICE under those circumstances, then maybe we ought not even think about replacing the lights…
I just tested the bulbs–all three are good.

I had a black and decker that i did not particularly like before and my hamilton beach one just broke today, (just got it for christmas.)

how far apart should they be? how far from the edge of the last cabinet? should they be closer to the front of the cabinet or the rear or in the middle?

thanks!

Have under-cabinet “puck” lights with a “thru-cord” switch. Don’t have the instructions for the wiring of the switch. I believe the wire, which has a ribbed and smooth side, has to be split for the switch. Help! Thanks

• 5-light low-voltage halogen lighting puck

• Stainless steel construction (unfinished)
• 3-year warranty; requires 5 10-watt G4 halogen bulbs (included)

Amazon.com Product Description
If you need accent lighting but want a little more illumination than smaller undercabinet models provide, the G9165 pucks are the answer. Good Earth Lighting’s Sunspot line of halogen undercabinet “puck” lights give you bright, clean light in a small, low-profile housing that will fit just about anywhere (2-3/4-inch diameter by 1-inch depth). The G9165 gives you the extra brightness of five 10-watt halogen bulbs.

Some assembly is required–you have to install the roller on-off switch, for instance–but the included owner’s manual makes the process clear. Installation is straightforward, too (the puck may be surface- or recess-mounted), and the unit comes with everything you need, including screws and wire guides.

Overall, a great option for brighter undercabinet accent lighting. For other finish options, see #G9165-WH-I and #G9165-BK-1. If you don’t need five lights worth of brightness, you may want to look into the G9163 series of three-lamp pucks. Three-year warranty. UL listed.–Josh Dettweiler

Puck housing (stainless steel), glass diffuser, five 10-watt halogen bulbs, magnetic transformer, power cord, hardware kit (wire guides, screws, grommets, on/off roller switch assembly), owner’s manual
