hello
I need help in finding the right replacement lamp to go under a cabinet above the kitchen sink. There is currently an older and no longer working version of this light http://www.screwfix.com/p/linolite-sylvania-slimlite-white-cabinet-striplight-30w/41504 which shouldn't be there as it not got any protection against splash or accidental contact with cutlery when washing up etc as the cabinet is about 450ml from the sink.
My problem is that it is controlled by a switch which is fed off of a spur but pretty much every lamp i have seen at wicks/homebase or online are like these ones http://www.screwfix.com/p/linolite-sylvania-satin-silver-cabinet-light-14w/58256 which are all designed to be fed via a plug in the socket outlet which is not needed or wanted as there is an existing feed already there. It is not my kitchen so a fluorescent lamp is preferred over a downlight because of boxing the transformer.
if anyone can point me in the direction of a solution it would be much appreciated.
and apologies if there is an obvious answer i am missing.
