Sell More with Better Light: LED Display Solutions for Small Businesses

Plug In, Light Up, Sell More

Easy LED Display Lighting for Market Stalls, Vendors, and Small Shops

Whether you’re selling handmade candles, baked goods, vintage tools, or jewelry, the right lighting can make your setup shine—literally. Customers can't buy what they can’t see, and bad lighting can make even great products disappear into the background.

The good news? You don’t need to hire an electrician or rig up anything complex. At Buchanan Lighting, we carry plug-and-play LED strip lights and pucks that are perfect for:

  • Market stalls and craft booths

  • Pop-up displays

  • Shelf lighting in small shops

  • Portable vendor setups

Let’s walk through what’s available—and how it works in the real world.


💡 Two Main Types of Display Lighting

We focus on two ultra-flexible solutions that can work in just about any space:

  • LED Linear Strip Lights

  • LED Puck Lights

Each is available in plug-and-play or hardwired formats, depending on your setup and preference.


🔦 LED Linear Strip Lights

Use for: Underside of shelves, wall accents, booth headers, backlighting, and longer runs.

✅ Plug-and-Play Linear Strips

  • Built-in driver—no extra components needed

  • Plug directly into AC outlets or power stations

  • Available in multiple color temps (2700K, 4000K, 5000K)

  • Modern, low-profile look

  • Easy to mount with clips or adhesive

🔧 Hardwired Linear Strips

  • Clean, permanent installs

  • Great for retail shelves, counters, gallery walls

  • Can link together for long runs


💡 LED Puck Lights

Use for: Focused lighting in display cases, product features, or under small shelves.

✅ Plug-and-Play Pucks

  • Some models use USB or AC adapters (like a phone charger)

  • Perfect for temporary setups or traveling vendors

  • Easy to set up and remove

🔧 Hardwired Pucks

  • Ideal for custom cabinetry, display counters, or retail showcases

  • Usually require an external driver

  • Available in various trim finishes, dimmable options, and more


🔋 Real-World Example: 12 Feet of Light—No Wires, No Problem

We tested three of our 4-foot LED strips (18W each) - equal to a 12-foot linear display lighting setup - on a 512Wh portable battery pack. 

Runtime: 8.5 to 9 hours continuous
That’s enough to light a full vendor booth from morning setup to dusk tear-down—no extension cords, no problem.

This setup is ideal for:

  • Outdoor markets with no power access

  • Emergency-ready display lighting

  • Clean, professional illumination without needing hardwiring

Just plug the lights into the AC outlet on your portable power pack and go.

🧠 Pro Tips from the Team at Buchanan Lighting

  • Mounting strips under shelves? Go linear. Spotlighting a ring? Use a puck.

  • Need help pairing pucks with drivers or picking strip length? We’ve got you covered.
