GE Lighting, a division of the high-end smart home developer Savant, offers a number of sophisticated smart lighting products, including these terrific under-cabinet lights that banish the shadows from working spaces in the kitchen and elsewhere. During Prime Day, you can pick up the 12-inch-wide set for $30.37, a 25% discount.
Not wide enough for you? You can link up to 10 of them together and operate them as a single unit. These are dimmable, full-color lights—including tunable white color temperatures—and they’re Matter certified to boot (which means they also work in the Apple Home ecosystem). Being smart lights, you can control them with any smart speaker or with the GE Lighting app.
I reviewed the 18-inch-wide model in May and awarded it a TechHive Editors’ Choice Award (they’re also available in a 24-inch-wide SKU, but only the 12-inch model is on sale). You can either plug them into a regular wall outlet or—if you don’t mind dealing with the wiring in your wall, or if you’re replacing an existing fixture—you can hardwire them. I installed them under an invisible shelf to cast light on my kitchen counters, but you can also mount them to the top of your cabinets to cast light on your ceiling.
Installing them is super easy, thanks to captive self-tapping screws that eliminate the need to first drill pilot holes. And as I’ve already mentioned, you can daisy-chain up to 10 lights together and control them as a single unit using either the buttons on any of the light bars, the GE Cync smartphone app, or a smart speaker (once you’ve connected them to your Wi-Fi network).
The 12-inch version that’s on sale produces maximum brightness of 750 lumens, or 630 lumens if you use GE Lighting’s Reveal setting.
