With a sleek profile, linkability and direct wiring, CounterMax MX-X120c Series installs easily under the cabinet and emits a warm light. The hinged top gives easy access to the long-lasting Xenon bulbs and wiring. Cabinets stay cool and safe due to the unique airflow design that limits heat transfer. Maxim Lighting was founded in 1970 when aeronautical engineering student Jacob Sperling began to design and build his own light fixtures, which he first sold out of the back of a station wagon! The company has grown exponentially since and today it features a wide variety of lighting that spans different styles and is suitable for any space. Maxim Lighting's sister company is ET2, another Lights Online brand, which focuses on contemporary lighting designs.
