I purchased two of these strip lights. The directions were simple and they were easy to wire up. They start up instantly and have no noticeable hum. If you are comfortable doing your own wiring, these are a better investment than overpriced plastic under cabinet lights. You do have to purchase your own bulbs (F20T12) but these are inexpensive and readily available. Most under cabinet lights use bulbs with uncommon sizes that are harder to replace.

This light fixture is pretty good for the price. The housing is sturdy but the tube connectors are not attached well. They don't seem to be so bad that this won't last, but they just snap in place with two plastic clips. The mounting screws that come with is are too small. They will slip right through the mounting holes if you don't add a washer (not provided) or use screws with larger heads. Luckily I had some screws laying around that would work.

The rapid start ballast works as advertised. The light turn on immediately.

I give it four stars because, for < $20.00, it's a good deal. Something you'd want to hide or use out in the garage or shed or, in my case, behind a panel over the kitchen sink. Defiantly not something you want visible in the house.
