What type of battery powered led puck lights are most reliable/brightest for under cabinet in our kitchen?

so far i seen some lights made by sylvania, but one downside is that you have to rip them off to change the battery and they might not re-stick. and I also seen these: http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&productId=100496342

  1. I dont know much about the battery powered lights, but i can tell you about the leds. Red LEDs last the longest Blue LEds seconed White third Purple last.
  2. those have 4 leds in them, the housing does not seem that " defused so the light may be more directed in straight down beams if that is what you are looking for where as a more defused"clouded " lense will spead the light out over a greater angle, you will lose brightness in defusing, but gain more area of illumination. if they are once stick, it's cheap enough to just replace the double sided tape on them with a good brand of velco with ahesive backing,\ for future battery replacement, leds dont draw much, 4 of them at about 20 mA each, you'll get a descent life out of a set of good batteries.
