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.

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.

@danshearer2689 Год назад

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

@its_grimy8442 2 года назад

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

@tbc210 Год назад

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.

@GeorgeConlow 11 месяцев назад

Did you find one?? I’m having same issue.

@chronikss Год назад

“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!

@ToolboxDIY Год назад

There's very little documentation out there on these type of fixtures so I had two things to figure out 1) how to safely (i.e. within code) make my splices inside the existing junction box (and make sure they stay there 2) how to wire a long enough pigtail wire going from the panel junction box to to the ceiling junction box. My primary concern with all of this was how to do in a code compliant way. I couldn't even get the LED panel distributor to explain it! It seems most of the applications are using suspended ceilings with armored cable.

@philiphernandez1086 2 месяца назад

Is there way to manualy dim these without a dimmer?

@Applejba 2 года назад

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?

@ToolboxDIY 2 года назад

Yes existing wires will work. The driver has connectors for neutral and hot. Also inside the driver will be a pigtail wire for ground.

@arealmaintenanceandrepairl1103 2 года назад

Houses that have the recessed boxes for tubes lights they have a 2x4 plastic sheet cover can I use these for that install delete light and clear cover and install this led

@GothamCenobites 7 месяцев назад

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

@blackyslash Год назад

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?

@ay-ayatenkapanget5983 Год назад

Pls installed led panel omni 120 x 30 thanks...

@frijoli9579 Год назад

What lights did you use?

@brandonpetrilla1731 11 месяцев назад

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

@joewarrick6043 7 месяцев назад

Slide the panel in at a 45 degree angle then bend the tabs on the back of the fixture out 180 degrees so they rest on the framing of the drop ceiling

@kentdavis4446 7 месяцев назад

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

@johnkinsfather64 2 года назад

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

@ToolboxDIY 2 года назад

You can find panels in color temperatures ranging from 3000K (warm) to 6000K (bright).

@octolinggamer2.0 Год назад

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

@ToolboxDIY Год назад

In my experience, you have to choose the color when you purchase the panel. I have not seen any that are navy, but I have seen some where the panel looks a skylight with clouds and a blue sky.

@octolinggamer2.0 Год назад

@@ToolboxDIY yea but can you replace bulbs when they blow or do you need get a new pannle

@octolinggamer2.0 Год назад

@@ToolboxDIY I’ve seen a 24 by 24 pannle that was color changing with a remote and I’m kinda interested how to do that

@johnaustin2379 Год назад

Please Provide a Link to the Light Fixture and Frame :)

@ToolboxDIY Год назад

I'm intentionally omitted it because I'm not pleased with these particular panels. I cannot in good conscience subject my viewers to these!...Still looking for a good alternative.
