How can I use rope lighting above my kitchen cabinets, that have crown molding and staggered heights. I had an outlet installed at one end.

you could use them above your cabinets, however i don't think it will look right. i bought these for under my bar to shine down onto the brass foot rail. Another suggestion would be under your kitchen cabinets perhaps.

This would be ideal! You wouldn't have to worry about screwing in, could use sticky pads & they would stay! I needed under cabinet lighting just not bright enough for that , you just gave me an idea!

Hi, I also have high ceilings. I have the chain fully extended and the light is beautiful. I love it!

The electrician just mounted my lighting fixtures right to the electrical boxes that he located right above the bed on both sides to provide super reading lights. If you are locating the lights away from the hard wired fixture, you could use molly's or other plastic screw plugs to affix the fixtures after running the appropriate wiring over to them.

I'm using it as recessed lighting behind cove molding in my ceiling, so don't know why you couldn't!

The first puck connects to your 110v outlet. I cut the plug off and hardwired mine into a service feed. Then each subsequent plugs into the one before it... Daisey-chain style. I forget how many in this series you can connect, but it is quite a few, like maybe 16. I like the way these fasten under cabinets. They have a small tabbed piece you screw to the cabinet, then you position the puck on it and give it a quarter turn... Very easy! Because their operating temperature is quite low, you probably could attach them using a double-sided tape (I would use the foam type), or even velcro, if you do not want to put screw holes in the mounting surface.

The lights I purchased have a two wire pig tail on one end to attach to the required power supply. The other end was simply cut square. I did purchase end connectors that had two wires attached (+Red and -Black) that the square cut end of the light strip would plug into. Conceivable you could daisy chain several strips together using that arrangement as long as your power supply is rated for the current. I'm sure some supplier has a type of connector that accepts the raw ends of two strips for an electrical connection. It should be noted that the lights in strip form are not protected from the elements or contact with metallic surfaces. Mine are placed behind a wood molding under the cabinets. I modified the molding to place the strip at a 45 degree angle and just hot glued them in place. Easier than any other lighting I looked at. The power supply is very compact and efficient. I think they are excellent. There is an even flooding of light over the countertop and they always run cool. Good Luck with your project.

Theres wire hangers on each side that should let u hang it vertically. I knw i would do it that way if i used lights like that. If u measure right u can use both hangers instead of letting it hang from the one which one should hold it just fine. Hopefully this answers your question. Feel free to ask any other questions if u need to.

That was my original idea with these lights, unfortunately I wasn't able to use them there because there is "too much" light for the lights to come on. I installed them under a shelf in the laundry room where it is dark and they work great!

Not sure I quit understand your question, but this connector is used to add more lights to the orginal length you have. If you are using lights above your cabinets then I would use just a wire connector and the smaller wire to jump from one to the other. It is alot less visible than the connectors

If you have the lights underneath there is not enough room. Less than 1" under my cabinet after installation. Underneath my cabinet measures 10 7/8". Maybe yours is larger? I do love this device in my small galley kitchen.

If the chandelier uses 120-volt wall power, this wire is too thin to be safe. Look up what's recommended for work at wall voltages. If you're unsure, ask an electrician. Your local building code may also have requirements relating to built-in light fixtures.

I'm not sure what you are asking. ... this is a direct wire under cabinet lights - meaning you don't plug it into an outlet. The lights are a reasonably soft white, tape like light that relents as a cone so the reflection on the counter is spread as opposed to puck lights that reflect as circles on the counter. Does that help?

I ordered 3 lights and needed my rods longer for hanging over a bar area with varying heights. My ceiling is slanted, so I purchased an adapter to screw into the rod end and then used chain the length I needed to reach the ceiling. That way the lights hung straight from the slanted ceiling. I love my lights!

How are you going to attach them? I want to do the same thing on my deck on the posts. Instead of the cheesy looking 'colonial' lights that go over the fence posts as caps.

My kitchen installers hard-wired it into the wall switch. Then they connected the other side of under cabinets lights (past a window break) and put the wire under the joint compound to hide it. Otherwise, I would have had to turn on 2 banks of lights switches to turn all my undercab. lighting on.

We have a breakfast bar too, but no cabinet above it. The one thing that might bother you is seeing the actual light fixture if you're going to be eating right under it. It's not pretty especially since you have to attach the adapter right next to it. If you have a lightrail around your cabinet, you may not see it (needs to be at least 1.5"), and would definitely look great. The light is very pleasing to the eyes, we use it in the morning all the time, as opposed to regular recessed lighting. Also at night it makes for a pretty cool night light! Did I mention the lights don't get hot?
