I replaced some light bulbs in my garage workshop with LED Strip Lights fixtures from Lithonia to improve the brightness and visibility. The installation of the LED lights was a straightforward process. I take you through step by step on how I was able to improve the lighting situation in my workshop, with some humor. These lights are super bright and are great for any workshop or garage. You might also get to see my dog, who knows!

I don't usually comment on videos… it's probably been 8-10 years but this video looks great and a lot better than the instructions…. thanks!
Could you please suggest how to wire shop/ceiling Fluorescent Lights into an ordinary outlet?
You explain things very well. Way better than most of the garbage on YouTube
FYI: in order to remove the cover from the fixture body, you have to squeeze the metal fixture to release it from the plastic cover (the metal fixture is positioned on the inside while the cover is on the outside); work it from one end, squeezing, then all the way down to the other end.
Also, if you are going to use the plug-in option, it’s easier to remove the end cover plug and attach the cord BEFORE mounting it.
How long did it took you to replace and install? 👌
I'm glad you didn't dieded
Super funny, super helpful, awesome walk thru! Thank you Tim!!
Easy and thorough! I like!
Loved the humor. Laughter always makes anything easier.
Great presentation! Humor well used to emphasize safety in sideways-like fashion. Much appreciated!
I get it….
Good no nonsense video.
Hola, tu video me pareció excelente, muy claro y explícito, tanto que, sin dominar el inglés, me diste los elementos para realizar una instalación perfecta, felicitaciones y saludos de México.
Fantastic! Thank you so much. Love your sense of humor.

Very helpful, thank you!
So glad I discovered the Binging with Babish of building today. New sub. Keep up the great work!
QQ: Looks like you have two stip lights inside that unit and it looked like a ballast inside — are these LED? Also, what wattage? I need to upgrade my garage/ workshop lighting (standard double) and wondering how big to go! Thanks for the vid 👍👍
Great Video I Love The Humor
Thank you!
wow
the real question is how do you replace the LED light strips ??
Great video
Love the production value of this video & all its silliness XD
Our kitchen lights haven't been working even after replacing the led bulbs so was curious to see how this style of fixture are disassembled to snoop into the wiring and see if anything has come loose (after shutting off the power of course). It's an old house so maybe the whole unit needs to be replaced by now.
Binging with Babish?
Why did you skip the wiring part?
Fantastic video, and the humour was a great touch
lol good video i sub you can put my beats in the backrond
Perfect perfect perfect! Thank you so much!! I was struggling just to get it open. Your video allowed me to get started quickly!
Thanks, mine didn’t come with directions, so I couldn’t figure out how to open it up! After that it’s home free!
I thoroughly enjoyed your humor and detailed explanations. subscribed
You're a life saver brother! Thanks a lot.
What you should’ve done is put a round junction box cover with a 1/2” knock out on it to make sure no bodies fingers since you can’t legally patch it because there is most likely splices in that box
Great info. Good humor 🙂
😂 awesome video
No one likes a smart arse
This is my first comment on any youtube video. Your sense of humour is better than any youtuber. Keep the good work up.
I enjoyed the straight face humor! 😂😂😂
I could do without the humour, but definitely giving this a thumbs up as it showed me everything I needed to know.
Excellent Instructions and loved the humor. Thanks for no loud music:)
1. Curious if it was bright enough?
2. I looks like you did not bother w/a strain relief bushing. They don't provide one. I have my old one.
I'm replacing a 2 ft (20 watt florescent) in the kitchen that I really liked, but nobody makes a similar one at a decent price. I have a humming 4 ft florescent in the kitchen, but prefer a quiet backup that are a tad less bright (and no noise) on occasion.
I just bought this exact fixture and got confused at step 2. Ha! ''Remove Wireway Cover (2) by lifting upward on ex-posed edges of part. Start in the middle and work outward.'' What messed me up was trying to start at the middle, per directions. It was not coming loose, so I stuck a small screwdriver along the edge to pry and scratched the paint. THAT is when I thought…hope there is a utube video for dummies. I 'thought' you started on the end, so I tried that & it was easier.
what kind of light did u have originally??
Gosh your very handsome …
Awesome video. I stopped listening once you brought in the Kong frisbee at which I began the oh my god haha I can relate laugh thinking of how I broke my best buddy’s (a super awesome rusty dobie who’s gonna break frisbee records for sure sometime soon) habit of fetching and not leaving it with a sweet little device from tractor supply. Wiring in remote included. He’s so much happier not having to try a tug of war each return. Leaves more time for catching.
Oh, that tim
