Thanks! Too many can lights in houses these days

We have a larger recessed light. This kit is not quite large enough. Do you know other options or a way to convert the converter kit? ty

Perfect! Thanks!

Amazing 🔥 I love this. Nice easy to follow video. New subscriber here lol

tons of videos covering this. how about how to convert flush mount to hanging light.

Did that bracket come with the pendent light or did you buy separate? I can’t find one.

Everything came in this can conversion kit. I recently tried another conversion kit that is even easier but is limited to lights under 4 lbs. I will be posting a video on that soon.

Hi! What did you do with the bare copper wire? I have the same kit and I'm not sure what to do with the bare wire, if I need to connect it to the pendant light bracket green screw or just leave it there.

I connected mine to the green screw. I'll just add that I am not an electrician.

Copper is the ground wire and it's meant to be touching metal. Ideally its never used but in the event of a fault, it redirects the electricity safely.

Did you drill the bracket through the canister? Or just straight into the drywall?

Through the canister

Will this make the drywall droop after time?

I dont believe it will. This one has been up since Feb and so far so good.

What size screw is the fixture mount hole? Cannot find the right size

We were able to just use the screws that came with our light fixture. Unfortunately I don’t recall the size.

Where is this pendant light from? It’s beautiful

@@Harashi101 I got it quite some time ago and I let it sit around before installing it. So it looks like it's been discontinued.

At 1:49 second, you were able to screw it pretty easily, but I couldn't make that easily... I used nails, drill etc... stuck there now. Any tips?

Did you try predrilling with a thin drill bit first? I find this always helps. Self drilling screws can be helpful too.

@@moderngreyfarmhouse Thanks for your tip. I did try using my drill with drill bit (7/64) but as it was hard I tried nails too 🙂... however, I just borrowed impact driver from my friend which helped to screw them well... it's pretty tight now. Together drilling it a bit initially with drill bit + nail helped finally. Thanks again for your video.

I have done this but after 20 minutes the light goes out. Anyone know why?

Yooo quick question. Can you turn the canned light into a ceiling fan??

@moderngreyfarmhouse

Жыл бұрын

Yep! Ive used this kit for ceiling fans. Never got around to posting a video on it. But it held up well. amzn.to/3XriSKt Its called the The Can Converter R56

@gogo-rl4un

This kit is NOT rated for a ceiling fan. However, there are other kits like the "Can Converter 7" Kit" that are ceiling fan rated. They are more expensive (about $68) as of this post. I found them on the Lowes website.

Can you please tell me where did you bought this kit . I really want this .

Decent video but using words (actual instructions) instead of music would have been far more helpful.

Thank you for the feedback. I will keep that in mind for future videos. I actually 2 more different brands of these can converters I will be putting a video out on soon.
