Scott, I enjoy watching all of your videos and I am able to follow along and understand everything, I wish that I have gotten into this field when I was younger.
Miguel Chavez code only matters if your in city limits, “right” only matters if you have experience and don’t want something to catch fire within 6 months. He did just fine, but the way he handled the light fixtures makes him appear to be a novice
Well then DO IT RIGHT!! LED's save so much money. Let's just go back to candle power then. They put out just as much light. Slap in some 120V light fixtures and DO IT RIGHT.
I was JUST thinking this the last few weeks! If you want arm-chair quarterbacks who work in fast food but are 'master-everythings' then youtube comments are the place to find them! lol
Few notes: these are more decorative than security lighting which is ok if that's what you want, but most people still opt to have flood lights on the corners of the house for their security camera to work well. Also, proprietary light fixtures that don't follow a standard mounting method (like a 4-0 box) are a mistake IMHO. They SAY LEDs last for years but these are outdoors and eventually water will get into the electronics. In my experience, even a little moisture will screw up LED electronics. In the old days, you could have a mercury vapor ballast pretty much be submerged in water and after drying out and fixing the leak, it would work like nothing happened, but not with LED's. The point is, either pick a fixture that takes standard bulbs, or if you're going to go with a low profile fixture, go with one that fits in a 4-0 box. Lightolier makes some shower lights that work well.
@@misterwebb1472 I was talking about water resistant ones. Maybe it's because i live in very hot and humid weather but moisture eventually finds a way.
@misterwebb1472 The Host should note to use one's for Exterior/Outdoors, Wet/Damp rated, etc when they're doing these videos. People don't always know. I've already seen tons of people using "Interior Only" rating lights with no Exterior/Wet/Damp rating for people to install with links to those very same lights with no reference to get the correct ones. I feel it's irresponsible. That's one of the first things I noted when we purchased some for inside and someone told us to use the same one's for outside. I thought great, are they rated for outside? Um....... they didn't know, nor thought it mattered. Needless to say, I found the correct one's.
What I like most is when they pick a product, they show you how they install it BUT they pick the one scenario where the material he needs to drill is wood when 99% of houses have aluminum.
That is correct about the accent lighting, they just needed to swap the fixture and aim the lights with LED floods. Done deal. For accent sure throw a couple over the door.
Seven years ago in my "man cave" we used "50 W" LED dimmable throughout. But my office has a dropdown ceiling / AC duct so we had to use strip bar. When wafers came out in 2014 I got them instantly and they've been going ever since without a hitch. The key is quality and though I paid a premium, we've had zero problems. I figure after 10-15 years I can simply replace any that fail or move on to the next technology (wireless?).
smb12321 wireless is a long time away from now, currently everything we use would suffer from the interference of the fields. Even still, there are some things that require more power than you can safely transmit across the air around any kind of lifeform without causing imminent cancer or death
Hello, just found your video and had a question since you have had them for awhile. Do you have an issue with bugs and spiders because of the lights. The ones i have attract bugs and when there are bugs, there are spiders. I need to switch them out and I'm trying to find ones that won't attract flying bugs. Thanks
Awesome! A proprietary system... so when one dies in three years for unknown reasons, you cannot replace just the light (because the switch mode supply is what usually dies), you will need a whole new light fixture! Contractors dream right there. And he'll have to pay an electrician 3x to have the other two units replaced as well to match the replacement. If you want LED's, get a fixture that uses standard bulb type sockets, and just buy LED bulbs for them. This way you're never SOL if they die.
thechosendude except that type of led light fixture has a run time of between 30000 and 50000 plus hours depending on grade and brand and a failure rate much closer the zero than any conventional setup. So.... that home owner should have at least 10 years without any maintenance and the energy savings of integrated led fixtures means the electrician is already easily paid for when they need replacing. Or since all the wiring is done, just buy some and swap them out.
The LEDs have a 20,000+ hour life...if they are run modestly. The power supply is what fails in almost every LED unit that goes out. Look at reviews of LED retrofit kits for refessed lighting, LED ceiling mount lighting, etc. They have problems with their supply dying.
I agree. 5 years ago, I was at a sales seminar a lighting manufacturer was throwing and boasting their fancy new LED recessed systems which were 100% proprietary. I pointed out that the technology was still emerging and it was silly to commit to one manufacturer for something that's supposed to last the lifetime (or at least until the next major remodel) of the house when in a few years you'd have much better quality lights and finding parts would be difficult. They down played it of course saying they would still have parts. Turns out these things don't last for 20 years and I go to houses which have burned out trims and it takes forever to find a matching light and costs more than $100 and it's far inferior to any new bulbs out today. I can buy a great 90 watt eq. Satco 2700k bulb for $15 now. vs. $150 legacy trim/bulb.
"We're sorry, water got in them so the warranty is voided" or "Sorry, this item is discontinued but we can give you one that doesn't look anything like it and you'd have to change the rest to match"
I've seen multiple tutorial videos on how to install soffit lighting, but I just don't have experience with wiring to an existing switch that already powers other fixtures. Otherwise, I'd do this myself in a heartbeat.
Disclaimer: Consult a professional first. Light switches have a hot (black), a load (black/red), and a ground (copper/green). Some smart switches will also have a neutral connection to run various functionality when need be, but typically your neutrals connect together external to the switch. When you have more than one wire in the setup (ground, loads, or neutrals) you just connect them with the proper size wire nut, and have a single wire go to the switch connection.
@@MichaelStephenLau I've upgraded every existing fixture in my home with an led recessed light, but was wondering if it would be acceptable to daisy-chain two soffit lights to some existing led recessed lights I already have in my garage? If that isn't an option, I'm guessing it's best just to install a new switch?
Dear This Old House, Could you consider a segment on outdoor area lights, wide coverage, such as used by barns and home parking areas? I'm thinking sodium lights and the like, but now there are LED options, I think. Thank you. Wayne.
I'll wager they're outdoor rated but I very much doubt they're water proof. They're made to be recessed under a soffit or awning and unless you have a leak from above it would be very difficult to get water behind them. Looking at them again, you have a water tight connection from the transformer box to the 24v wire and the back of the light doesnt have any exposed circuits or anything. Submerging them would not be a good idea but i'll bet the underside of that could get 'some' water but I wouldn't install them in that kind of area.
Should also point out that not all wood and materials are weather treated if you cut through the surface. In some places, that's a no no to cut and not add an additional sealer.
Owen Robinson At 3:08 you can see the gap between the fixture and the panel. In that place it's no problem but if there's any chance of rain getting at the light you need to use silicone kit to seal it properly.
Good catch. I didn't see it or notice if it sealed the newly exposed particleboard or just acting as an expansion gasket at the bottom. In this case though, we have no way to know if it's necessary because only the owner and Scott could see the wood and/or markings. However, as a how-to or suggestion video, I still wish Scott verbally included the optional step of sealing the exposed wood.
If you've got rain hitting that hole in the soffit the homeowner probably has bigger problems hahaha! Can't say I've seen rain curve back up and hit the soffit.
PvtPapa theoretically rain can hit the soffit if driven by heavy winds, surface tension can than drive it towards the trim if the light which may rust that material.
Nathan Cawley generally, yes. I think it’s in good taste to suggest what you know works well and lasts a long time when you start the job. All sorts of overpriced cheap garbage out there that a homeowner without any electrical or product design knowledge could buy that will break or fail faster than something half the price
and? This is the USA, majority of homes do not have, nor need, 220v going to any light receptacle outside. Here in USA common residential voltage is 120v and that is plenty.
Type? There are several names for it. Down lighting, can lights, recessed lights. If your asking for the brand idk. But it largely doesn't matter. Whatever you have at your local building supplies store.
Lotus Led Lights. The outdoor ones are wet/location. Can be installed in showers also. Indoors go from, 2", 3", 4", 6", & 8". Some are round and squares. Different trim colors also. White, brushed nickel, black, and brushed cooper. 27k, 30k, 40k & 50k. Excellent service. Quality lights. Check out their website.
I'll play the devil's advicate for those whom are beginners and dont understand. They never fully explain nor fully show each step all the way. We see 3 new lights to install. We also see one power source from preexisting power from a floodlight which operates on a preexisting switch. He mentioned the new lights being powered from the main source, but never showed how he safely connected the power to the last two and of course how it tied into the switch.
@@acreageliving ....I'm glad I figured it out on my own instead of waiting 2 years for an answer from someone here! I installed them myself and they are beautifull ! I have 3 across the front of my house above the windows and am using a dimmer switch to control the lighting. The lighting is a yellow shade and not a true led bright light, which is ok but I was hoping the lighting would be a bright white led. Anyway, I installed them. I love the look under the eaves. And I would reccomend them for anywhere you want lighting.

I'm surprised an electrician that would be featured on this old house would wire up any circuit starting with the hot or neutral. Proper wiring would have you wire the ground first, neutral second and hot third. The reverse order should be followed when you are disconnecting any circuit.
tren van What here is not code? And what is wrong with using a system that is just as reliable, if not more so, and much easier to install? Wet/damp location remodel pot lights would have require the same exact install method with the exception needing a much larger cavity.
Nothing here against code, what are you talking about? You obviously arent an electrician. Most NEC codes are for 50 volts or less to ground. These fixtures are 24 volts. The 120 volt wiring is secured in those metal junction boxes
Too bad the fixtures are not already rated for 120 vac. Then you could simply connect the Romex directly into each fixture and eliminate the transformer, making the setup even more compact and easy to install.
This wasn't exactly made for the situation, the show and episode is a guide to show the process of installation and the features of the brand products that are available on the market. They ask people for volunteers on who would want to test out new products for free.
try and keep up. The HOME OWNER decides what he/she wants. They had a flood light... but did the home owner specifically tell you he still wanted a flood light and he was strong-armed into recessed lighting? NO? Then let the home owner choose what they want... you upgrade you shanty the way you see fit and let other people upgrade their houses the way they see fit... comprende? ¿
That guy ALWAYS make things more complicated. No matter what he's doing he chooses the worst way to make it happen. Just watch his videos and you'll see......
Don't make me laugh. These lights do NOT replace the function of the previous light. You removed the irritation when driving up, but your solution should have been supplemented by real floodlights mounted elsewhere, perhaps to the left and higher.
The behind the scenes interior shots are very helpful, thank you to the genius camera director that thought of showing us that.
we got the same ultra-thin LED panels here in Germany for 230 V. I Installed 3 of them in a Office.
They are GREAT ! Good Light !
