Wireless Undercabinet Lights
Most retail grade wireless under cabinet lights are actually battery operated linear strips that provide basic display lighting with the convenience of unencumbered mobility. When decorators need to remove shelves for cleaning, or rearrange displays for new aesthetics, they can remove the shelves with the light fixtures still attached without breaking a circuit or damaging the equipment. The drawback to these battery powered wireless cabinet lights is the quality of light they produce. They typically feature only one or two light settings, and they often fail to render details and patterns beyond basic, primary colors. To go beyond these basics, you have to use commercial grade wireless under cabinet light fixtures designed for specific types of display shelving and display case contents. Because displays themselves are so widely varied, and because the contents they contain can be anything from antiques to collectibles to rare books, it is best to use custom fixtures that provide the same advantages as battery powered lights, but offer some notable technological advantages that can only be obtained from proprietary engineering and special under cabinet lighting manufacturing procedures.
Custom linear lighting strips are prolific in the lighting industry, so the linear strip itself is not the golden goose of lighting per se. To provide the level of quality and flexibility that eclectic display lighting requires, the basic linear strip design has to be modified to some extent. The first thing that has to be changed is the size of the transformer itself. Many shelf lighting strips operate off low voltage transformers that offer the end user considerable savings on energy. However, these transformers are bulky and difficult to conceal. If the transformer can be made smaller, and reduced to a size that allows it to be placed in a concealed location behind the cabinet, then the overall size of the strip lighting fixture can then be reduced and modified to create a truly unique and flexible source of wireless under cabinet and display cabinet lighting. This is how Phantom linear strips are designed. Engineered to operate with low voltage transformers that hide themselves from normal viewing angles, Phantom wireless under the cabinet lights are slimmer than most standard linear fixtures and use existing metal shelf standards to power festoon lamps, thus eliminating the need for traditional wires and concealing their presence in the process.
The most popular wireless cabinet lighting strips made by this unique Houston cabinet lighting manufacturer are the AE (Adjustable Exposed) and AC (Adjustable Concealed) series models. The AE series is intended for remodel and new model display lighting where exposed metal shelf supports are desirable. The AC series is designed for new shelving projects where the metal shelf supports are completely concealed. Both of these fixtures can be used as either wireless cabinet or under the shelf cabinet lights depending on the type of display case you intend to illuminate. Both function and aesthetic impact have to be taken into account when selecting the appropriate fixture model, and it is always a good idea to speak with a US Phantom Lighting Agent to determine the best course of action.
Phantom wireless under cabinet lighting fixtures can be used in virtually any home or office display cabinet when superior lighting effects and controllable light sourcing is desired. Because these are low voltage devices fitted with dimmers, any desired lighting level can be conveniently set by the user. Each wireless cabinet light is custom cut to the exact dimensions of the display case in order to ensure a seamless fit and presence that is invisible to normal angles of view. These strips are ideal for bookshelves in private libraries, trophy cases in the living room, home office honorary award displays, and antique collectible cases. Again, customization is the key to getting the most out of these wireless cabinet lighting fixtures. You can have them fitted with your choices of incandescent, xenon, or LED festoon lamps in order to achieve optimal color rendering and ambient lighting effects appropriate to display contents.
If you are a lighting designer, these wireless cabinet AE Series lights can help tip the scales in favor of your proposal with any client who wishes to showcase something special in his or her home or office. If you are a private collector, or simply a homeowner looking to enliven the living room with a new level of light, you can upgrade from outdated and inefficient battery lights to LED wireless cabinet lights that will save on power and provide you with any desired lighting effect you can imagine…at a fraction of the cost of incandescent bulbs or batteries that have to be replaced on an ongoing basis.
