How to Install Recessed Lights | Easy DIY LED Install

In this video I'll show you how I installed 4 slim LED recessed lighting fixtures into my kitchen ceiling to update the lighting and give it a more modern look and feel.

This is the video our generation needs.

So hard to find a video that shows you how to actually wire it. Cutting holes in ceiling and all that is super easy. I have no idea how to get power to the light. You know, connect the light to the electricity. THE most important step, that these tutorials seem to leave out every time.

You showed the easiest parts of the install. What about wiring the string from the original box to each light? The video search goes on I guess. That website to calculate the measurements was brilliant. I'd never heard of that one before - thanks!

Great video! Ordered my lights and was looking for some instructions but none really explained the wiring part and you did awesome! Thank you!

[Wayne-ioqm]

Wish you would have shown you wiring them all together

I was looking for the wiring instructions. Thanks

Great job on the install, they look super!

Wow this is awesome 😎. I’m installing some too to for me and my dad. And even if we are right on a joist it will still work. Even in mobile homes with only 2x4 space.😎👍

Thank you for the video Nick. I see your two Amigo's from shop sounds commented...finally. haha. I also want to give you props for the editing you do for Shannon on that other podcast with that dude that whispers to wood and the hairy dude that likes slabs. Shannon has been giving you thanks for your help in all things related to sound and video.

Hello, Thanks for the instructions! Three of the eight ceiling LED lights turned off with no reason. I tested the LED lights, they work fine but there must be a problem in the wiring or in the J-Box. Do you think I should rewire or but a new J-Box to fix it?

[JLGortman]

Doing this ASAP upstairs in my studio room and bedroom!

[TheMiniVan]

Any recommendations on how to remove and replace them? I have one flickering

[ashokreddygitta]

Can I use the old junction box? Also if it’s 2 pin and the other box has 3 pin is there an adapter or do I have to change out everything?

[antoniochacon]

What did u do with the original junction box did u patch the hole up and did u simply connect/run all those 4 lights into that main junction, can u show us how u did that? Thanks so much

Awesome video! Just what I needed. Are you concerned about how hot the little transformer gets? I was wondering if I should install Tenmat fire hoods, I have a flat roof? Thanks!
