A beautiful electrician and instructor who demonstrates a ceiling-mounted lighting fixture. It was so fun and clear/easy instructions from this beautiful lady. 😀👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks.
i had no idea supermodels became construction workers...
Great video, Daru! I’ve installed many of these, and my biggest problem was always having the fixtures supported while my arms fatigued from holding them over my head. You are the only one I’ve seen so far that addressed this problem. And you did it all in under three minutes!
I agree 💯 that holding the light is the hardest part of wiring so having the wire makes it so much easier! A simple but smart idea. Glad you found it helpful. Thanks for letting me know!
Yes I did ! ,,,,,Most Helpful.
Yeah, I struggled for about 30 minutes while my arms died. I feebly tried to twist it on as they shook more and more. Eventually, I got it to twist on.
It randomly fell off two days later in the middle of the night. 👌🏾
I have a large fluorescent fixture in the laundry room flickering, ceiling mounted, that once I pulled the cover off has a 16 inch and a 12 inch circular tubes. The tubes were cheap enough, about 24 dollars at Home Depot. Then I started thinking well what if it is the ballast. As the lights in the house are at least 27 years old I started looking for LED replacements. Found your video with the link for the light and placed the order. You made this look so easy. Well done. Will be watched your recessed lighting video as I have about 30 lights that I want to replace with LED fixtures. Whoever built this house in 1994 really, really liked recessed lighting. They are in every room and hallway.
I’m happy you found a good solution to your lighting problem. That’s a great idea to update lighting when it’s older. Plus it’s a nice look. Thanks James! Good luck with your projects and I’m glad you’re DIYing it! 👍🏽👏🏽
Ha - we just replaced all the single bulbs in our new house with these.
I got these with screw connectors.
They are GREAT - Love them. Low heat low power.
Thank you for the excellent, concise video! I didn’t know that’s what the cable was for and now I’m excited to change out my hallway lights fixtures myself.
Great that you are going to do do it yourself. Good for you! ⭐️
Thank you so much for your awesome video. You made it look so easy. Your explanations are easy to understand. I installed mine for the first time!
Hi Angela, I’m happy you were able to install your light on your own!! Great job! Thanks. 👏🏽
Fantastic video... off-topic, but your hair is beautiful. It’s full and healthy looking, and your colorist did a phenomenal job!! Gorgeous color 💛
Short and to the point. That was very helpful. Thank you!
That was a slick and nice light fixture so easy to install. Thanks for the video walking thru the easy installation steps. You Rock!
Totally agree, it’s pretty slick! Thanks for watching. I’m glad you found it helpful and good on you for learning how to do it yourself. 💪🏽
this is fun demonstration, very confident and relaxing ! ! ! it stimulates interest in electrical fixing! Thumbs Up👍 ! ! !
Great video Daru! Props to you for showing people how to use wire connectors.
Happy you liked it Mihr! Trying to help where I can. Thanks for watching!
awesome ty just bought this from Lowes and wasn't sure if I could install it myself , but after watching this I think ill be fine, made it look easy
Thanks Joseph. It should be a straight forward installation. The connectors are DIY friendly and make installation easier than in the past. Good luck and double check that your power is off. 👍
@@DaruDhillon I also have to take down the ceiling fan that’s there now so I’m praying all the wires match lol
So, what did I like most about this LED Light? The installer!👍❤ Well done and informative. I need to get more than just a couple of these.
Thanks so much Peter, happy holidays! 👋🏽
Indeed. Very cute :-)
Great video. I looked forever till I found lites that worked on the slanted ceilings of my last home. A bit of a loft style, it had an open look, and except for certain areas, a flattish LED light, like these, worked best. You pointed out something I think I didn't have. A choice of light color. Can't stand the old fluorescent bulbs that gave off that ghostly purply look. Nice option. Good work.
You’re so right that slanted ceilings are tricky when it comes to finding the right light. I’m happy it worked out for you! Being able to adjust color temperature is a nice touch.
I have never fancied an electrician before there was a bit of a spark but I don't think it was electrical. She just made me smile
I see this done a few years ago, well we just installed 3 !! and what a difference maker Thumbs up!
Yes! Glad you like them. They’ve a great to know about!
Thanks for taking me through this light fixture change.
Love to hear that you installed it on your own! Thanks!
Great video easy to follow and beautiful !
finally they give you a string to hang the light with while attaching the wires. tough trying to do it without. I just did a bunch of lights that were an absolute nightmare trying to find the screws through the hole to be able to tighten them down. Ill have to order a few like the one you installed.
Those mounting screws can be a real pain. I hope your next installation goes well. 👍
I like this because if even for a brief moment, you wore safety goggles!!! You can't replace your eyes, folks! They've saved my eyes quite a few times where I'm rushing to get things done and am like, "Oh, just one more cut at the tablesaw (or something)".... I try to always make my PPE the first priority.
Absolutely, wear proper PPE it is important. Thanks for sharing your tip!
Daru, it is great to see you doing the installation. My wife always tells me to do these things and I tell her to watch your videos LOL. Great video! Subscribed for sure!
Hi Jeff, appreciate it and thanks so much! 👋🏽
Not being familiar with wiring and terrified of doing it incorrectly, I wish you were able to zoom in closer with the camera so the way everything is connected was shown larger. You made everything look so easy. Well done!
Good point, Catinhouse! It my newer videos I have zoomed in more so it’s easier to see. More to come. Thanks!
Usually being able to match the colors of the wires is the main thing, as long as the building is wired to code. Certainly there are some videos about push-in fittings. I personally only have experience with wirenuts where you twist the wires together then twist the wirenut on, both in a clockwise direction.
I agree, this video was done at lighting speed. I want to replace my chandelier for a flush light fixture, got a quote for $200! I know this job takes less than 30 minutes to do. I know this, my ex was a electrician. I’m going to keep searching for better videos. It’s a shame this channel is not geared for women that have to do it themselves.

Now when I hire someone I can show them your videos
No more excuses
Happy you found it helpful! You must have heard a lot of excuses, I’m sure you have some good stories. It’s great hearing from you!
I wish my wife knew how to do it too, so I don't have to - great greetings from Switzerland👋😃✌
Maybe you and your wife can do the LED light together!
Hi, Daru, Love your confident attitude and clear video! After seeing it I ordered the same fixture. We spent over an hour, after stuffing the old wiring clipped to new wiring up into the center space. My husband doesn't give up easily! We couldn't line it up and click it on. Is there a smart way to screw the plate in place? When he tightened the screws it didn't align right. When he loosened them to lower it a tiny bit, there was too much "play" in the way the screwed-in bracket rested in the ceiling. The fixture just refused to line up. We're 70 and we gave it our all! Thank you.
Hi Catherine, I'm sorry to hear that the fixture didn't work out for you. You and your husband put in a lot of work and I can see how that can be frustrating. Thank-you for taking the time to leave a review because someone in a similar situation will find your experience helpful.
Low-profile ceiling lights can be a challenge to mount in some situations. Next time, I will make note of that in the video. Thanks Catherine. I'm impressed with you and your husband's can do attitude! All the best to you both!
Good tutorial. Thanks, Paula Abdul.
Straight Up 👍🏽
Great video!😘
Great job explanation n installation

Appreciate the support Ricky thanks! Hi to you in the UK. 🇬🇧
@@DaruDhillon no worries Daru sorry if late over state side stay safe hun merry Xmas to you & yours x👍🎄🍻
@@ricky7112 no problem, I’m an early riser. Merry Christmas to you and yours from Toronto! 🇨🇦🎄
I love this new led light not only does it last you 50,000 lifespan hours you don't have to go out buying new light bulbs every 4 months or a 1 year !!!
I agree with you Daniel! They save you a lot of money and they look great too. I’m a huge fan of the new generation of LED lights.
@@DaruDhillon Hi Same here Daru Dhillon
I agree 100%. I'm going to put a different LED lights from BLNAN which comes with a remote so you can change the color temperature and the brightness anytime you want.
Thank you for this video, I’ve been searching all morning for a video on how to do this. Just got one from temu and the directions are vague
My lord, someone out there is a lucky man.
I prefer using ceiling fixtures that take standard bulbs. Reason is that those LED lamps may be discontinued, by the time you need to replace it (They are NOT repairable) and cause a mismatch if there are several in the same room. I use LED bulbs in the fixtures that i have, every bulb in the house.
That’s great that you’ve swapped out your bulbs for LED bulbs. It’s a great tip for making your home more energy efficient! Thanks Paul good advice! 👍🏽
I would say that the more generic or timeless fixtures should be made well into the future. So far at my place the only LED fixtures that I have multiple of inside are recessed lights, so they should keep making identical or closely matched ones forever.
Why have you only got 13k subs you deserve way more. 🇬🇧👍
I’m grateful for the support Danny. All good things start small. Hello to you in 🇬🇧❤️
@@DaruDhillon all good things definitely start small 🇬🇧👍😁
What I like about LED flush mount lighting Is lumens output vs watt-hour consumption.
That is a great reason Damien!
Great video,
Thanks for letting me know and for watching!
Hi i'm a huge fan of light bulbs i'm subscribed to you channel !!
That’s great Daniel thanks!! 👍🏽
@@DaruDhillon Hi you're welcome can wait until you do more videos on led light bulbs
thx!!!!
Anytime, thanks for watching!
thank you
Hi Pablo, glad it helped!
Woww that's cool
I think they are really cool too, Wendy! Thanks for watching!
Good job
Thanks SKM Channel! :)
nice and good job to installed that.
Thank-you kindly Andy!
@@DaruDhillon sound like push wire connectors is so convenient
@@att2976 They are incredibly useful. A lot of recessed lights and bathroom fans will have them too. If you want you learn how to use Wago lever nuts, they are push-in connectors that lock the wires in place you can check out this video on a dining room light installation: czcams.com/video/kaAsALqBdU8/video.html
Cheers!
Lady,
You are bravo
Thanks W Ch!
good job, Daru
Terrific video. You make it look so easy! Where may I purchase a mounting cable (for those times when I'm installing on my own.)? Thank you.
Thanks Elaine! It the mounting cable comes with the light fixture. It's a great design. I wish more light fixtures came with them.
Great video! I will definitely be watching this as I install my flush mount lights. I have a question regarding the sizing needed for a decently sized basement living room (ceilings aren't high by any means). I'm guessing I need something bigger than 12 inches for the light?
Thanks Basketball Central! For larger rooms you could go bigger from 15”-24”. I would put some painters tape up on your ceiling to help visualize what size looks best to you. It’s all personal preference! These flush mounts are a great choice for basements or any room where you’d like the illusion of a higher ceiling. 👆🏽 Thanks for the great question!
BLNAN makes a great LED light. they come in 12-in and 15.5 in. They have a remote so you can change the color temperature and the brightness anytime you want. You can find them on Amazon.
Super 👍
Thanks so much!
I have three in a row over kitchen area on a dimmer
Got the same light. It flickers on a trailing edge dimmer. Still looking for a suitable replacement LED driver
I wish this is close
Up installing the wire but nice video thanks
Here's a lighting video I did with close ups so you can see the wiring clearly. Hope this helps. Dining Room Light Install: czcams.com/video/kaAsALqBdU8/video.html
Awesome
Thanks 🙏🏽
Piece of advice: if the insulation is intact avoid cutting back feed wires as they can almost always be tucked away.
Thanks for the tip Kevin, cheers.
Awesome i want it ha
I want these!!
Glad you like them Jo Ann! Me too 😊💕
Amazon sells one with remote BLNAN.
It’s Looks A little fun
You know it! Hope you feel the same
Hi Daru!
I have a question. I have these in my apartment and they're on the cooler side so it looks like an office or hospital in the kitchen and living room. Is it possible to select a "daylight" option on the existing fixture, or would I have to buy a new one to achieve the lighting I'm going for?
Hi Lindsay, to see if your lighting temperature is adjustable you’ll need to release the light from the mounting plate. The color temperature setting is usually located on the back of the light fixture. Hopefully, you will be able to adjust it to warm up your lighting. Good luck! Most are adjustable. If not you’d need a new fixture. I’m betting yours is adjustable. I like to be optimistic! 🤞🏽
BLNAN LED light on Amazon has a remote control where you can change the color temperature and the brightness. they come in 12 in and 15.5 in.
I understand you already have the fixture, however, you might want to replace so you can change everything by the remote.
Versatile and low energy consumers, LED lighting has really progressed!
That’s a good point Randy!

Thanks for watching and supporting my channel!
Hi do you happen to know what make these were? The links seem be outdated and are loading totally different square ones when I try them.
Also as sounds like this was done for a customer I know not very likely will know the answer to this but just in case, is it still working?
Thanks
Yea... It has come a long way.... From China🇨🇳
Touché
I have two old 4 tube fluorescent lights in a home office. As they are on the same switch should I install 2 of these round LED lights?and want to replace them in a small home office should you use one or 2 of these round LED lights? Thanks for the instructions.
Hi Ruth, this is a really bright light fixture that provides good light for an average sized room. If you’re looking for two you could always go a little smaller. Good to hear from you!
Wow, this lady's incredibly tall.
And you’re incredibly funny. Love that!
@@DaruDhillon Love your guide btw, might get this to light a stain glass.
Hi can you help me? I had flush lighting put in and we love them, except where the ceiling and the mounting meet there is places where the light is visible and it kind of ruins the look. Is there any type of caulking you can recommend to block these light leaks? The mountings are white. Thanks!
Hi Kev, Great to hear that you like the look of the lights! For a quick fix you can try caulking but a skim coat of drywall mud to smooth out your ceiling is what I’d do. Thanks for the question. 😀
@@DaruDhillon Thanks
Super
You rock girl
Thanks and back at you! Give it a go.
Great Video! I am trying to move away from old fashioned Flourecent lighting. Where can I get these ?
I have a link in the description box for these lights. They’ve been a great find for me. 👍🏽
Do they come with the mounting cable or is that a custom item?
The light I installed in the video comes with the cable. It’s a handy feature but not all lights have them.
Question What is the lifespan meaning on a led light bulb ? Please reply back !!
and what do they mean by based on 3 hours/day ?
Most lifespans are around 30,000 hours.
The longevity depends on how often you use the light.
Hi question should we believe in the lighting facts on the light bulb box when they say 30,000 or 50,000 lifespan hours ? Please reply back !!
I would believe. Longevity depends on how often you use your light.
Where can I get that support cable? We just bought a new house and I will have a few more chandeliers and/or fans to put up.
The support cable comes with the light. It’s a useful feature that would be extremely helpful with chandeliers etc. I’ll check to see if I can find a link if they’re sold separately.
You can install my ceiling lights any day 😏
I love it . How much is it and how long will the light last? Where can I purchase one? Thanks. Jim
Amazon sells LED lights. I just purchased a BLNAN LED with remote which allows you to change the color temperature and the brightness along with some other things. they come in 12" and 15.5".
Longevity is 30000 hours so depends on how much you use the light.
@@jeffj318 thanks
@@jameslee2215 Glad to help.
I had the twist one. It's not great. I also lost my wire stripper. You don't get the support cable and you also dont get an easy place to put the wires. I almost considered returning it.
That sounds frustrating Stanley. The support cable makes it easier but not all the flush mounts have them. Appreciate you letting us know. It's good to share your experience with others. Thanks!
so it is possible to dimmer it
with a simple potentiometer?
Yes, it was installed with an existing dimmer.
What about old houses where there is no ground wire in the fixture? What do you do with the ground wire that's on the LED light?
You can leave the ground wire unattached.
What is the Beam width? And how soft is the light?
Hi Alex, you can check out the link in the description for all the details. Thanks!
When you turn the switch off to the light, does the fixture go completely off or is there a faint glowing?
It turns completely off.
this is great. Is this enough light for a kitchen? I currently have a globe fixture in the middle of my smallish kitchen that has a 200 watt bulb. I'd love to get comparable light that uses far less energy.
If you are happy with your current light you can always swap out the bulb for an LED bulb. You can save a lot of energy and money by doing that too. This style of light is very bright and can be used in any type of room.
We just bought a new house and these types of lights are all throughout the house. Unfortunately the one in my bedroom keeps changing light temperatures and I can't figure out how to make it stay at one color. Any tips? The previous owner didn't leave a manual for what to do on this. Thank you!
Sounds like you have a light that is malfunctioning. If the brand is listed on the fixture you could contact the manufacturer for a replacement. Good companies will replace the fixture. Other than that, I would check that your connections on your light are secure. I'm sorry to hear that you are dealing with this problem.
