Your video is the only one that helped me. I have the type with the clips and you showed both types of clips. Thank you so much. After a lot of aggravation, after watching your video I have finally replaced the bulbs. THANK YOU!!

Thank you so much for these instructions. This has been very helpful.

Great video. Easy to see what is done and what the parts are.

So appreciated that you made it 'simplez'... that's after watching other videos and trying to remove the whole lamp unit from the ceiling..Great work THANK YOU so much.

Thank you. Took less than a minute thanks to these simple instructions.

Simple and sleek video. Thanks. It was helpful

Brilliant. So simple and quick. Thanks so much!

Much appreciated, my first attempt at changing down lights went smoothly 🙏🏻

Finally! Some helpful stuff

Thanks for showing the different types of spring clips, etc.

Great video, just moved into a new house and i have the exact same spot lights and just couldn't work out how to replace the bulbs as i have only been used to pushing the ring wire together to release the unit.

Quick and easy, thank you!

THANK YOU for this!!!!

Thanks so much mate, your a lifesaver. Earned a new sub.

Thank you, I had a faulty light that needed changing but I had no clue how

Wonderful Andrew, that was very helpful.

Thank you! This is exactly what I needed!

Wonderful explanation step by step , thanks for posting video.

thank you. you did this for most varieties.👌👌👌👌🙏🙏

Oh, I wish ours came out of the ceiling like that. It's all fixed so we have to fiddle around with our arms in the air hoping to get the pins exactly in the holes. Took me just over 9 minutes for the first one I tried then half that for the second.

Great clear, concise video. Quick (and possible dumb) question - can you just swap them like regular bulbs or do you have to power down / shut breaker off?

Great! very well shown without any annoying drivel 😉 Thanks

Great! Thank you so much!

Thank you. You are a life saver

Hi, my ceiling lights dont have a twist or rotation feature to remove it, it can only be tilted on single axis. Do you know how i can swap a globe? Thanks

Does it matter what type of GU10 led bulb is used for recessed downlights? I've heard there is some risk of fire but I can't find any information regarding which ones are best and what not to use. All I have are Philips 410 lumen.

Clear and helpful. Thank you!!

Thank you 💋I fix my self by watch yr video..

How to remove square pin light assembly? Not the bulb but the whole assembly? Cant find any screw.

It's as easy as that! Great vid ....... many thanks for putting me right.

Do ou know where I can buy the 3 inch trim my trim want hold mine up no more

Thank you for this very clear explanation. You’re a lifesaver ! 🙂

Thank you for this. How to you replace the bulb from the fitting two along to the right on your video? These are in my bathroom and can’t do them

How do you identify which Bulb is suitable?

Hello, in the United States do you use lamps with a gu10 socket? Could you explain what is appropriate? What spotlights would you use to illuminate the interior of a hotel in the USA?

Do you have video for the light beside that one?

Your video is exceedingly helpful but a groaner... I didn't see the twist of the inner ring and managed to pull the whole trim/bulb assembly from the can. Now I'm tearing my hair out trying to figure out how to get the four clips to hold the trim. Any video or insight on how to do that? I've seen lots on KZfaq but not this kind of downlight. Mine has four clips right at the bottom of the can. They are currently bent in a < . Many thanks, keep up good work.

informative! thanks

Helpful for me. Thanks

Thanks for sharing

Push and twist - literally saved my life in 3 words😂

absolute legend

Thank you ! Thank you! And Thank you Again !!!!

Thank you so much, I have removed the LED light easily. in my kitchen cabinet i have a little sensor just beside the led light, which probably act when the cabinet is open and close. when the cabinet is open its act to switch on the light and when the cabinet is close its helps to switch off the light . May be that sensor has a battery which i need to change, can you show how to replace the battery? it would be more clear if i would show you in the picture.

Thank you

Great but how do u get the actual bulb out when it's stuck in its connection holder mine is stuck cheers

I'm in the same boat as many of the folks here. I've got a recessed bulb I can't seem to "push and twist" (at all), and if I try to take the cover or can (or whatever the thing the bulb is in is called), it seems that I'm going to pull the drywall down with it. It's not clear what comes out -- the bulb or the cover or the can (if it's a can). Honestly, I can't tell. What to do?

Wow awesome. Thank you.

Thanks so much

thank you for the informative diy vid,,one question and its probably silly,, do you switch off the mains power to do these globe replacements? i understand the light switch should be off, but is there a danger

Thank you!👍

Thanks for this

Good explanation

Great, thank you!

The one in my ceiling looks similar to the 4th one over in the beginning of the video, that's almost off-screen. How do I get that one out?

Thank you I will try to do it myself

Amazing!

Are the sockets different for regular halogen and LED GU10 bulbs? I think I have a bad socket because the 110v GU10 50w halogen bulb only lasts a few weeks; I've replaced 5 of them in 8 months. The other 9 GU10 bulbs haven't burned out. The replacement socket I bought on eBay from China says it's an LED halogen GU10 socket. My bulbs aren't LED.

Switching out gu10 halogen to led and the lights flash when turned off at the switch why would this be and how to rectify?

1:38 Anyone knows what the coil like thing in the holder is for?

Did all this but the bulb is stuck and it won't turn. Any suggestions? This one is in the bathroom shower.

Cunterclock wise

Thanks

Thanks !!! ;))

I love you 😘

perfect

Mine wont twist, It's like it's siezed or something, i really need help. it wont turn either direction at all.

Should I shut down the power b4 replacing the bulb? Please let me know Sir!!!

Thanks!!!

cheers boss

It didn't work for me. Why???

The led bulb in my bathroom is part of the extractor fan. It pushes up and twists to come out. I tried to replace the bulb, but the bulb is so fragile, it just disintegrated! Way too fragile! This means I’ll have to get an electrician in to change the bulb every time it goes out. The first bulb didn’t last very long at all. I’m very unimpressed.

Thank you, you helped me a lot! ❤️

Can you show how to change it with the one on the right?

Mine has metal springs on the sides and there is no socket, just wores going directly inside the beige tip.need to find another video

The problem I have is that the socket is stuck. I try to turn anti clockwise but it doesn’t move and there’s no grip - I have several bulbs stuck in the house at the moment 😩

Where did you get that housing? What's the part number?

wow..

Very nice vedio

Dunno mine will not unscrew... If I push the bulb in towards the ceiling it will not in a little but that's it, turning it both ways stops it

WEAR GLOVES! There are some very sharp edges around the housing and I cut through my calloused right hand twice

Now i know how to replace my bulbs

Good thing I seen this because I would’ve tried to force twist it

🔥👍

Andrew I got a question.. it did not work.. SOS! 🚨

I’m having a job twisting mine feels completely stuck

Buenos knotches.

Why the bulb change

Hero

Doesn’t budge

Bear in mind there are different types of fitting, and different types of bulb. I watched 3 videos to find one that worked for me. Sometimes you press and rotate the bulb, sometimes you pull it. Sometimes you rotate the inner besel, sometimes you pull out the whole fitting. It's misleading for each video to just say 'this is the way you do it'!

I do not like this kind of lamps. they are beautiful but they are not easy to change..thank you for your explanation.

Thank you so much❗️

I feel like im high watching this

I bought my house a couple years ago and didn’t pay much attention to the lights in the “newer” bathroom although I did notice they were not as efficient in lighting the space so there were four lights when the space should have had only two. The light above my toilet recently blew out. It is much more complicated then what you show here. 58 years I’ve lived in houses that never required anything more then twisting a bulb. I am so furious over this crap I may pay to have all of these psycho earth lights removed and replaced with normal lights. No one who doesn’t have a full time house manager at the mansion wants time and money inefficient bulbs.

Quiet

The fitting refuses to move and now the damn thing is chipped because i had to try and force it with a screwdriver, i've injured my hand now and the bulb can't be removed and the fitting is damaged. Jesus christ, of only things were simple.
