April 11, 20224 yr I need some counter lighting that is shallow enough to be concealed behind a thin 18mm high pelmet that runs along the bottom of our kitchen units. It could be up to 2cm in profile without us noticing it. Need to be 3000K and ideally IP44 rated as it is fairly close to a sink. I need to illuminate 70cm wide of counter top with the sink occupying 20cm of that 70cm (right on one side) so by using one light in the middle I would be about 15cm horizontal dust from the sink. Given this light will be at about 55cm high up from the counter, if I’m going to do this with one light, a beam angle of 60 degrees would work. Though maybe I’m just far enough to avoid having to make it IP rated, not sure. I Lumos do an IP65 rated LED strip which would work, but I think I would need to double or triple the length used and double/triple back on myself, as although it produces a beautiful warm white light, it is not that bright, really more just accent lighting. Any suggestions?
