As an electrician I will never blindly drill out holes like that dry wall is getting cut cuz I gotta know what's up there before I drill

if you wanna be 100% sure of not hitting obstructions your only option is to remove all of the drywall to run the wire. It’s not the end of the world. Or if you want to save time and money you send it with the 6ft bit.

Better question is why are you still using recess cans versus the new slim fits. Recess can you gotta make sure you know we’re near any beams? Where with the slim fits you could be directly under beam and still install the light and it looks better than the cans.

I always use a key hole saw for the holes just incase but I got very lightly and not too much in

There is no way I am doing this solo. Professional hire it is.

Crazy that people still use can lights. I did this in my kitchen earlier in the year. It's not as simple as he made it seem

The only scary thing about doing that is you never know whats on the other side of the beams. Theres a chance you could hit a pipe or wire. But it definitely works

I wanna install new pot lights and I have a fairly good experience doing so in a new build, however, I am now trying to upgrade an existing room and not sure what would be the best way to run the wires. The room has two light fixtures in the ceiling obviously with own junction box for each. Each light fixture is controlled by a separate switch in that room while one of them is also controlled by another switch neat the stairs. I am also installing a dimmer switch with the pot lights. What's the best way to do it? Shall I connect all pot lights to the junction box controlled by the 3-way switch and completely cancel the other light switch/junction box in the room or split the pot lights in half, one half connected to one junction box and the other half to the other? Would that be weird or unprofessional to have to light up half of that room with one switch and the other half with another? Are pot lights supposed to light up all together in a given room or is it ok to split them between two switches. Moreover, if I did that then the dimmer switch can only control half of the lights and not all. Shall I install another dimmer switch for the other half of the pot lights and have each half function independently? I feel like it's gonna be unprofessional and maybe also annoying while trying to match the dim level on each switch. What do home renovators do in this case, do they cancel one light switch and it's junction box and just connect all pot lights to the existing 3-way switch and install the dimmer switch there?

Thank you so much in advance.

How do you figure out spacing on lights?

And if there are ceiling joists, then you have holes to patch. Its best to actually go into the attic and find the joist so you can make everything is the same distance off the wall or use a stud finder.

Is a recess light wired the same as a regular Keelus?

And can most electricians do it this way by snacking the wire and not going into the attic ?
