      @@lfish21. yes LED burnout is a real problem. Generally the LED integrated panel lights are not lasting as long as they were promised to us. There is a jumper wire work around you can do. I’ll make a future video on it. But yeah, I wish the technology was a little bit better.

      @@HomeRapidRepair the one I just bought says 5 years with an average of 3 hours of use a day. So I imagine it will last 3 tops again. It is a cheap one from lowes, but still I think my old fluorescent tubes lasted longer.

    How did we skip the very first step!? I just want to find a video that shows it all. How did you pull the old one off?

      @HomeRapidRepair  26 днів тому +1

      Sorry if I didn’t show that. Just turn off the power and there’s literally just two screws to remove the old light and then the electrical wire caps to remove and you’ll have your exposed wires and you’re good to go to the new one. Let me know if you have any other questions. Good luck, you got this 👍🏼😊🛠️🏠

    Can you use this product to replace an old 2 bulb light fixture? and if so can you send easy instructions?
    Thank you

    • @HomeRapidRepair
      @HomeRapidRepair  5 місяців тому +1

      Absolutely. That’s what it is designed to do. You would just turn off the power and remove the old light fixture and wire in the new one. It is super simple. You can do it. There’s literally only two wires if your house is old or three wires, including the ground, if your house is newer. Good luck 🛠️🛠️

      Maybe I didn’t ask the question correctly. This light fixture has 2 bulbs. Each bulb fixture has a white and black wire . How do I know what white and black wire to use for the new LED light? And do I wire cap the other 2 wires?
      Thank you

      @@billshaker9961 OK yeah that’s a good question. Probably for continuity. You’re just going to want to connect all the black wires together and all the white wires together and you’ll be good to go.

    My light isn't sitting flush to the ceiling. Is the dangerous? The electrician didn't put the box in deep enough.

      If it’s an LED integrated light fixture you throw away the whole thing and buy a new one 😳 Isn’t technically great?

    LED-integrated fixtures typically are junk. Designed for planned-obsolescence. I like LEDs when they work, but I prefer a light fixture with replaceable bulbs. I don’t think those fixtures will go away anytime soon. They can accommodate LED bulbs and look better.

    • @HomeRapidRepair

      While I agree with your points…in the home improvement stores they are literally removing all bulb type light fixtures and only carry LED fixtures.
