Why we picked it

Countertops hiding in shadow make cooking harder than it needs to be: these slim bars stick under cabinets, light up when you walk in and recharge by USB, no wiring or electrician involved. Renters love them, and midnight snack runs get a lot safer.

Highlights

• Motion-activated: lights up as you approach
• Rechargeable by USB, zero wiring needed

• Made for kitchens, closets and hallways
