Great video, very thorough and even paced for the beginner. Love the humor and having the wife be a part of the team. Over all valuable information, and a job done right. Thanks old guy!

Outstanding tutorial! 😃👍

Good work and excellent explanations. Best presentation I have seen online bar none. The setup I will be converting is exactly like the one you just worked on.

Thank you, this is the best 4 light, 2 ballast led conversion how-to that I've found.

Nice job. I appreciate the way you emphasized safety with power shutdown, testing, and lamp removal. You had clear enunciation with your presentation. Something you may want to include would be cleaning the reflector and lens. That gets the most light out of the fixture.

Great video 😊 thanks so much. I'm an old guy too and I just subscribed to your channel. You explain that very well.

Excellent video…Thanks……

Great video! Where would we be without our old gals.

Great video well done I’ve done three before a couple 2 or 3 years ago and now need to do one in our laundry room but forgot how to do it 😮😂😂😂I didn’t wanna take any of tge others to see what I did so this is a refresher 👍

Thank you sir. Something tells me you are an awesome Grandpa! I appreciate your video very much.

Thanks . I'm not much of a DIY man. With your help I changed out two four bulb fixtures successfully!

TY.

the old ballast bypass upgrade,....i just did the under cabinet,sort of a learning curve,😊

Thank you

I have the tubes that I have to use the ballest,, after I took it off.

Great job! Thank you very much! Might be easier to just leave the ballasts in. Just disconnect them. They are difficult to dispose of, and you should not just throw them in the garbage.

I am so glad to find your channel . Like you , I have been having problem with my fluorescent lamps. You have very precise instructions. I am a new subscriber. I wonder if you can help me find the led lamp you bought from Amazon. Can you write down the link so I can get them? Truly appreciate you and the missis. Thank you very much.

Does that put out a brighter light than the old lights?

The main white and black wires from the ceiling, does it mater what side you connect the white and black wires?

You help me get back into good graces with my wife after being able to fix her kitchen light fixture this way. Thank you and God bless you and yours.

From one Old Guy to another, Perfect video. Just did mine (hot one end and neutral on the other). Worked like a charm. I must admit, mine were hanging shop lights, so I could unplug them, take them down and put them on the bench and rewire them, and then rehang and plug them in. I avoid overhead work more each day. LOL.

What will happen if you just but the LEDs in without changing anything.

Did you mention that the new LED bulbs have a L side for power and N side for Neutral side when placing the bulbs

From one old guy to another, Thank You! Great instructions!!

Please add the issue of shunted and none shunted tombstones. And double vs single ended.

I thought led lights need a driver?

does it need to be non shunted tombstones?

I have what I believe is a ballast that has seen its last day. To determine if I can convert the fixture, I go to a KZbin video that will show me how this is done, and if I am able to do it. If the video is more than 10 minutes long, then I figure I can't do it. This "KZbin video rule" applies to a number of chores including plumbing and automotive. But good video.

Nice job

It would be much easier to use a single ended led lamp which is what I did. You power one end and the tombstone on the other end is just for support. Much simpler wiring.

Thank You for the walk through on this conversion. I had earlier converted to a Sylvania LED That is powered from one end only. They call it a Toggled tube conversion so the neutral wire and the line or load wire are fed through the two pins on the same end of the tube. I bought those lamps at Home Depot but they are no longer available through that store. I would suspect that the newer tubes by FEIT that I just purchased are not going to be compatible . So I will have to be very careful to not use the newer tubes in the fixtures that I previously wired for the Sylvania lamps. I have just one suggestion for either of these two conversions. That is to apply a sticker to the fixture to indicate that it has been changed to operate on 110 - 120 volts which could cause a regular florescent tube to crack or burst when energized and also to indicate which end of the fixture the Line wire is tied to. You did a great job of conveying the process.

Very informative video. You did a great job of explaining the conversion process.

Hello, what is the brand of led you are using? Can you give the link please? Thank you!

Perfectly done thank you sir.

Great Job... easy to follow...

Excellent tutorial. thank you

Great educator. Thank you. I almost looked your video over and I'm glad I listened to the inner voice. 😌

Clear. Thorough. Completely de-mystified florescent light housing, ballast, wiring, and converting to LED bulbs. Also, an excellent demonstration on how to demonstrate! Thank you.

Thank you, thank, THANK YOU!! This is the 5th or 6th video for thisLED conversion purpose I've looked at and I FINALLY understand what I need to do. The "old guy" [I are one, too ;-) ] was clear and precise in his presentation, kept referring to the appropriate wire colors, pairings, and placements as he explained the steps he was taking, and did not cover the wires with his palms, wrists, or fingers as happened in so many of the earlier videos I examined with mounting frustration. Let's hear it for the old guy and his gal!

Thanks for such clear instruction . You are an old guy but your brain still works. I am an old guy also. You are lucky to have such a good assistant. Cheers.

Jump in both feet. Jb 71

Appreciated the detailed, in depth instruction. I have converted one laundry room fixture and I'm in process to get the LED bulbs. Hoping all goes well when we flip the switch!

I followed these instructions for my 4 bulb, 2 ballast fixture, and only tubes #2 and #4 come on now.

Love the Old Guy! Thanks for straight forward instructions! Be Blessed! 🙏

From one old guy to another, nice work! It's hard to find 48" florescent tubes these days and so I had to convert a fixture in my basement. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Fantastic!!! I love the way you explain things. You saved me big time!!!

great work very helpful , thanks

Man, this is as good as it gets for a nearly 69 year old geezer like me. Thank you so much for your video.

Your thermocouple was probably going bad if the water heater was needing to be reset so often - another easy thing to fix / replace.

I was getting frustrated trying to find a video that matched our fluorescent setup. Your instructions matched ours perfectly and we were able to convert our old fluorescent fixture to the LED conversion in a short time. Thank you very much for posting this! It was a life saver.
