Kitchen counter lights turn off after a few mins sometimes
I have some kitchen counter lights installed on the underside of wood cupboards.
they are controlled by a wall switch but sometimes they turn off after a few mins. I have to turn the switch off and back on for them to work. They stay on longer sometimes.
Halogen bulbs. Is there possibly an overheating sensor turning them off?

I used to have halogen under cabinet lights. The intense heat eventually broke down the sockets and they would intermittently start and stop working. I got tired of replacing the pucks when they got flakey so I switched over to a continuous LED tape strip. The light is much more even and it uses 1/4 the power.
