Sorry Friend great install,and im sure there are many comments about your lack Of GFI Protection Witch is required But the NEC and is a Big Safety Concern?????
It's been a while since I made this video and am not going to rewatch it to verify, but the plug it connects to is tied to the bathroom GFCI and I thought that was mentioned in the video.
Backstabs (the hole you pushed those wires in behind the outlets) are one of those things that should not exist.. They are known for failing quickly and most electricians stay far away from them. Instead, you should use the side screws on the outlets.
I just had to go back and rewatch the video because I was fairly certain I had mentioned that the screw terminals are recommended over the backstabs. But yes, you are correct, they are not recommended by electricians. While I've never had one fail on me, I do know that they have a pretty terrible reputation.
I'd like to say it would actually be possible, as it defaults to "On" whenever power failures occur. So if you connected a motion sensor to the plug in the back it should work.
If you're tying in to a bathroom outlet it should already have GFCI. In my case my GFCI outlet is in my master bathroom on the other end of the house and runs over to this bathroom.
Perfect video I needed
Sorry for missing your message on stream, it never showed up for me until I went to end things, but I wanted to say thank you. =)
Exactly the tutorial I needed. Thanks bud!
Glad I could help.
Perfect wall Mirror mounting
Congrats and good job bro
if you use a little screw in the piece you cut, you can use it as a handle and not lose your drywall piece in the wall
True, though it doesn't really affect anything for an interior wall like this to have it dropped behind it.

@@JoeMartinMVC "Do as I say not as I do" 🤣
is it possible to add motion sensor to turn on/off instead of touch?

No GFCI required?
