    Hello Scott, Your narriatives light up my evening even if there were no salt lamp. I admire the way you tailor your dwelling space to suit your needs. When your happy its enough and its adequate. What do you care if someone in Saginaw or Dog Patch fail to appreciate your nest? Its yours. Thankyou for good audio and video content. Its always uplifting and interesting. ❤

    I'm sor amazed despite your electrical knowldege that you have the ability to recycle or change this light.. Most of the time, people toss an item like this in the trash. For our world to continue we need to see things how they are and fix them if we can.

    I love your videos and your quirky sense of humor ( like my son’s. )Just want you to know that I am one of those people that do watch your videos till the very end and I’m sure there are a lot of viewers that do. I never know what you are going to say or do but it’s always informative and simple and interesting. That’s the quality Mr Roger’s had. He would take the simplest thing and explain it’s function and use and kids would sit their mesmerized hearing his low monotoned voice and descriptions. Keep the videos coming . This from an Oregonian who loves the Pacific Northwest.

    Leaving the wiring exposed defiantly makes it easier to change/repair, so good call on that. You might watch the LED light, when you hit a bump the single magnet "may" not be enough to hold it. And yes I did watch it to the end, even the ads. I enjoy your videos.

    I’m happy you switched out the LED. I had migraines and sleep problems (this is how I found you) with LED everywhere in my home. Incandescent light bulbs can’t be sold in CA so I have to order on eBay but I switched out all lights in my bedroom. They are so expensive now but it’s better for your health. Those LED bulbs emit way too much EMFs. Sorry I’m a neurotic scientist when it comes to radiation.

    Not to change the subject (but I guess I am), I tried Yellow Bird serrano last week for the first time when my local Albertson's had it on sale for $3.99, regular price $7.99. I liked it so much I went back this week and stocked up, buying 4 more bottles at the same on sale price. Thanks for the tip.

    Hey good morning Scott. Waking up eary today so whats better than having a coffee and watching Mr. Scott doing some diy projects? After watching till the end, congratulation, it came out fine the new light concept looks more cosy now. Silly comment, maybe you could reuse the ripped out LEDs and the unused switches of your switchpanel and the (maybe) leftover cable to install the LEDs in new and different places and wire them individually to the switchpanel (or in two groups of two) to add to a flexible lighting system where you can switch one or more lights independently to match your mood or requirements even more flexible and reusing already available material. I have different single lights in my vehicle since a few years and really use very often different lights or groups of lights for reading cooking, cleaning or watching movies, just an idea. Thanks for your video and have a great day.

  • @Joanneeisle8458

    Hi Scott, I haven't read all the comments so there's probably someone who already suggested using a dimmer switch for your overhead lights. That way you can dim it down to how you want it or brighten up for when you need it.

    Sometimes, it's best to toss broken things in the garbage. This appears to be one of those times. Incandescent bulbs waste electricity, space, weight, generate heat, and can be fire hazards. A light that leaks salt water is a new one to me though. But you do you. I did watch until the end.
