Tips for Using This Light on Your Project | BEST PREMIUM UNDERCABINET ROUND LIGHT:
Dimming:
All dimmers are not created equal. Flickering and buzzing can often be traced back to using a dimmer that isn’t compatible with the LED, or to connecting too many LEDs to a single dimmer. Quality lighting manufacturers often publish literature on which dimmer lines can be used with their LED light fixture. This particular light manufacturer recommends the Lutron DVELV 300 (per the cutsheet). It is always worthwhile budgeting for quality dimmers that are compatible with the LED you have chosen.
Value Engineering & Alternates:
Changing to a similar, but less costly puck light can be an effective way to reduce cost. If on the other hand you're willing to spend a bit more for adjustability, I highly recommend the undercabinet line from Core.
Routing Power:
A remote driver is required, which brings the line voltage down to low voltage. Work with your millworker and electrician to determine the route for running low voltage wires to individual lights.
