American Lighting LVPX80BK 120-Volt Under Cabinet Xenon Puck Lighting Kit, 4 Pack, Black Review

American Lighting LVPX80BK 120-Volt Under Cabinet Xenon Puck Lighting Kit, 4 Pack, BlackI understand that these are not very expensive items, but they simply fail at an unacceptable rate.Two out of the six I purchased have now failed.What's worse is that the failure mechanism is not repairable.I took one apart to see what went wrong, after all it was not working anyway.I found that the socket that the bulb plugs into is so poorly designed, that eventually (a few months after installation) it will fail, even if you don't touch it - I mean the socket, not the bulb.This is poorly engineered garbage.Don't waste your money.If it was free, I wouldn't pay the shipping.As an aside, while they are working, the 20 watt xenon light is great for undercounter kitchen lighting, it's just the fixture - from American (made in China) Lighting - that blows.

August, 2009 update:I was sent two extras as replacements so I now own 8 units.Only two are still working.Much credit to the engineers at American Lighting for creating such a reliable failure mechanism.
