I really wish my electrician would’ve given me a choice before installing all of these in my living room. I have recessed LED lighting in my kitchen, with simple screw in/out bulbs, much like every bulb i’ve ever known before, this wasteful mechanism.

Dumb question. We just bought a new construction house with LED lights like this one in the ceiling. One of them is flickering like a strobe light. Does this mean it needs to be changed out?

Sadly, I got a new light to replace one that was out and once I pulled the old one down it looked nothing like what you showed. I was so excited to be able to do it myself, per your instructions, however, I couldn't. There were connections in there that needed an electrician to handle it.
