That’s the question. When cooking and then pouring the water into the sink, for 10 seconds the lights on the counter turn on. These lights are usually broken and refuse to turn on manually. The lights are a strip of little LED bulbs glued on the cupboard .

i have a theory but i am not an electrician

    Some LED strips intended for kitchens have a feature where you can place your palm on the strip to turn it on or change the brightness. This sort of thing is usually achieved with backscatter IR, which may also be triggered from water vapor. Try pushing your hand against the ends of the strip to invalidate this hypothesis.
