QUOTE(feekle @ Jul 31 2020, 07:14 AM) 3 pages just to show how to connect LED light? wow... Some houses have reversed the wirings, and there are several ways to hook up LEDs which could be confusing to someone who has just started looking into this. Even the same tube can be compatible with existing ballasts or the homeowner can took to take it out and rewire for more efficiency.

QUOTE(feekle @ Jul 31 2020, 06:23 PM) correct me if im wrong, for LED either one is + or - doesnt matter. Yes I think it doesn't matter for led drivers for t8 tubes but it might be confusing for diy homeowners since wiring diagrams show polarity and its just good practice.

QUOTE(Maxieos @ Aug 1 2020, 10:39 PM) I saw some diy from youtube but most of them are connected to dual LED light and not single.Beside , the current wire came from the wall is 3 black and 1 green where youtube mostly are 2 wires. Just find out which wires are live, neutral, ground. If you are not up to it, theres drop in replacement led tubes like the philips mastervalue/instantfit that can fit right in the same socket without any rewiring, just get the right kind for magnetic/electonic ballast and the starter might need to be replaced with a dummy type.
