    Great video. Thank you!! I am replacing my parents kitchen lighting with 2 2×4 LED lights.

    This might be a stupid question but , If the ground cable (green cable ) is not well connected to the ground (solid) cable , can compromise the LED lights?

  8. @martinduffy3835 on November 13, 2024 at 12:23 pm

    obviously you are not talking about commercial right ?

  9. @tbc210 on November 13, 2024 at 12:24 pm

    Thanks for your video, this is great. I would like to install 3 LED light panels on a ceiling above a drop ceiling and was hoping there would be a way to wire them in series so I only had to wire the last one to the ceiling box. But I haven’t seen any panels for sale that advertise this feature. Is this anything you’ve come across? Thanks again, this was an excellent tutorial.

    Great video. Thank you

    Thanks very helpful👍

  12. @its_grimy8442 on November 13, 2024 at 12:34 pm

    Did your frame come with the panel? Or do you know what I could get the frames?

  13. @austinartfx on November 13, 2024 at 12:34 pm

    Please Provide a Link to the Light Fixture and Frame 🙂

  14. @willscurran on November 13, 2024 at 12:35 pm

    I like your tutorials – very clear and easy to follow. I just got some LED panels from pqlighting and realized they were a bit more complicated to install in my home than expected. Happy I found your guide! Unfortunately I already bought dimmers before seeing your tutorial, not realizing they are for commercial wiring.

  15. @ComgrowOfficial on November 13, 2024 at 12:37 pm

    Great video👍👍👍

  16. @leoread8185 on November 13, 2024 at 12:39 pm

  17. @camrynhunter6969 on November 13, 2024 at 12:40 pm

    This is awesome. Was just watching other videos. How to install panels. This is perfect. 💯 Thanks a bunch

  18. @petethorp4148 on November 13, 2024 at 12:42 pm

    Too much time-wasting and intrusion from advertising so I shall not be back !

  19. @ridefitnation on November 13, 2024 at 12:42 pm

    Excellent video

  20. @ofiasdfnosdf on November 13, 2024 at 12:43 pm

    Excellent, easy-to-follow video! Could you please provide a link to the light fixture and frame that you used?

  21. @kellymoses8566 on November 13, 2024 at 12:44 pm

    My office is installing these and they are too bright

  22. @johnkinsfather64 on November 13, 2024 at 12:49 pm

    What if you have interior areas with fluorescent and want a warm light not bright white.

  23. @bradjohnson5520 on November 13, 2024 at 12:49 pm

    Thank you, great presentation!

  24. @fsj197811 on November 13, 2024 at 12:52 pm

    very nice, thanks for sharing.

  25. @danshearer2689 on November 13, 2024 at 12:55 pm

    Thanks wasn’t sure how or what to do at the junction box

  26. @chronikss on November 13, 2024 at 12:55 pm

    “Took a lot of research, and I finally figured it out”

    What was so hard and mysterious about the wiring? Did I miss something?

    Appreciate the video!

  27. @octolinggamer2.0 on November 13, 2024 at 12:56 pm

    Can you make the light any color you want like navy my favorite color

  28. @arealmaintenanceandrepairl1103 on November 13, 2024 at 12:58 pm

    Houses that have the recessed boxes for tubes lights they have a 2×4 plastic sheet cover can I use these for that install delete light and clear cover and install this led

  29. @Applejba on November 13, 2024 at 12:58 pm

    Hi – thanks for the video! I am replacing a number of florescent lights in my 3 car garage.

    Will the existing wiring (black and white) work with this type of light?

  30. @philiphernandez1086 on November 13, 2024 at 12:59 pm

    Is there way to manualy dim these without a dimmer?

  31. @thehawk8295 on November 13, 2024 at 1:02 pm

    Thanks I wondered how that worked.

  32. @fonbibyo on November 13, 2024 at 1:02 pm

    Nailed it dude. Thanks for the video

  33. @seano3432 on November 13, 2024 at 1:03 pm

    Thanks for this- I have 8 of these to do this week. You saved my a**

  34. @karunathilakaabeysekara8642 on November 13, 2024 at 1:03 pm

    Thank you

  35. @josephcimino4203 on November 13, 2024 at 1:03 pm

    My installation is a drop in panel. I have six bulb garage insulation and I’m desiring to install 12 drop in led lights. I’d like to use pigtails and I’m wondering if I could daisy chain from one fissure to another just picking up power at the end of the run? Am I setting myself up for a problem?

  36. @devotedanaheim1575 on November 13, 2024 at 1:03 pm

    @toolbondyi

  37. @GothamCenobites on November 13, 2024 at 1:03 pm

    Where did you get your panel? Did they have black frames?

  38. @cameronprice on November 13, 2024 at 1:07 pm

    An excellent tutorial to help refresh my own technique. Pre-COVID I installed several identical units in my basement and although purchased, the last surface mount LED got delayed. Your video not only confirmed my memory, the cardboard template and electrical tips made my final install much easier. Since this was in my basement, over a large TV, I actually played this video while following your own install.

  39. @kentdavis4446 on November 13, 2024 at 1:07 pm

    I have 3 wires in my ceiling, the fixture has black, green, white, a purple and grey for dimming

  40. @frijoli9579 on November 13, 2024 at 1:08 pm

    What lights did you use?

  41. @shawncrogan6868 on November 13, 2024 at 1:08 pm

    Thanks very helpful

  42. @Aleph-Noll on November 13, 2024 at 1:08 pm

    im looking for something like this but that can be hung like a mirror vertically on the wall and has a plug so that i dont need to hardwire it for an art project, but i dont think they make them. i might have to DIY a solution

  43. @boatonthedock on November 13, 2024 at 1:09 pm

    Thank you

  44. @brandonpetrilla1731 on November 13, 2024 at 1:11 pm

    Quick question what’s the mounting procedure for a drop ceiling? will the led panel just sit like the original fluorescent fixture did?

  45. @ChristiMeyn-yy3gr on November 13, 2024 at 1:12 pm

    Thank you for this video! Incredibly helpful and you made it possible to get this project completed in an afternoon!
