These DEFIANT brand motion security lights are incredibly easy to install. They were around $50 each at Home Depot. They really made this install very simple and they are soooo bright that it hurts your eyes to look at them. I was very pleased with the ease of installation as well as results and functionality of them serving their purpose well. Be sure to turn off the power to the circuit before working on any of this. A voltage tester is always a good thing to have around. Reminder to check the batteries and on/off function of your voltage tester before using. After you get your old outdoor light off the wall and unwired, you'll need to also remove the threaded piece of flat bar/sheet metal bracket as the new LED motion sensor light has it's own unique piece with an inset threaded center oriface that needs to be installed. The same original two screws can typically be used if need be. If the old ones are worn than be sure to replace them. A lot of times they make these screws stainless steel whereas a lot of times in the past they were galvanized. Even though they are galvanized they still get corroded and sometimes very bad.

Once you get the bracket and back plastic holder plate installed be sure the wiring is run through hole. Now the next step is the one that I really like. There's only one screw for the ground wire but then there's some set screws for the black and white wires. The kit comes with a little red flathead screwdriver..........check out https://the-avant-garden.blogspot.com for the rest of the details.





Aside from being a semi-serious creative outlet, this DIY Technician Youtube channel serves many purposes. It acts as somewhat of a historical log or portfolio of past work. It also allows me to make a tiny amount of money with both Adsense and Amazon. The tiny Amazon profits come from you clicking through my link provided (such as this one: https://amzn.to/2JZqIqW) and then either ordering the item or ordering another item after clicking the amazon link.

I know the experts recommend staying in a certain niche, and I'd say I do that for the most part, however, I don't like to put self imposed limits on what I post. It stays more interesting for me this way. I take great pleasure in fixing things as well as trying new foods, helping others,  and visiting new places. I really appreciate and enjoy the education that youtube has to offer. It's still amazing to me how you can learn how to do almost anything with just a few clicks and some watch time. Almost all of the videos I post are not just for the purposes of posting videos, they are documentation of activities and fixes I was going to do regardless. So I figured that since I'm performing these tasks anyway, might as well have fun making some videos and maybe make a nickel or two.

This video shows you how to install DEFIANT Brand LED Outdoor Motion Detector lights purchased at Home Depot. This is the easiest installation I've ever done due to the easy configuration of these lights. I am not getting any kickbacks from plugging these lights but come on.....so easy to install. Main thing is to turn off your power so you don't shock the shit out of yourself. The rest is damn easy once you watch my how to for dummies video. I appreciate all your views and welcome any positive comments.
