This is a great video, thank you for doing this. Really enjoy the humor and graphics. Virtually all my windows need the balance replaced. A window company wanted $10k to do them all, can't believe it's this simple and SO glad I watched this video and didn't hire them.

How can you by pass a ballast to power an led bulb

Hell yeah matey!!!

Thank you.

Hey! Thanks for this. The window company wanted $1,200 to "adjust" some single hung windows that just need some fresh balance springs. You saved me $1,100. Much appreciated.

Thanks! I have 2 faucets that have been leaking for a while. I'm going to go buy the seat and springs and give it a shot. Can't wait to see the difference in the water bill next month!

Haven't had a video in year. Hope your well good sir!

I live in korea. Just used you ballast replacement. Thank you sir!❤

Looked easy enough. Bought the parts for $12. Watched other videos that showed the exact same thing. My faucet is still leaking and now somehow I screwed up the hot water knob. Can't turn on the knob to get water. I have to turn the valve underneath on /off now. I created another problem...😊😢

he looks like mick foley

New videos soon?

Really hope your true name is Steve and you're on a terrific Dodgeball team 😊

Another issue: I just moved into an older rental house (2007) and the bathtub is backing up with water-drain is plugged up. So I unscrewed the little drain stopper and there was half circle with a hole that seems like you could insert an Allan wrench. But I tried & it did nothing. I’d love to replace this whole drain/stopper thing with one that allows you to easily clean the drain out, also seals better, and one that allows me to add a hair catcher inside of it. (My husband always fixed all these problems but it’s just me now) Help me!

Followed your instructions-it worked!!! FYI, when I went to Lowe’s the guy needed to know what brand faucet I have since certain kits are made for certain faucets. (Mine is Delta) Worked like a charm!

👋

Hi just stumpbled across this channel and i have to admit from the very beginning i was fixed on it and its because of this ive dropped a like and subbed immediately 😊

Why did you not thread the new ballast wires into the end lamp "socket"? In other words, remove the red and blue wires from the end lamp socket and connect the new ballast wires directly to the socket?

Shops charge twice as much as buying a new one yourself and installing it yourself.

Thank you so much for the video.

Excelente tutorial. Thank you for the lesson!!!’

Good useful shortcuts for easy work..thank you pirate

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I am moving and had no idea it could come apart so am pleasantly surprised I can now do this and not leave it behind. I also really like the statement you had taped at the front of the unit!! lol.

Thank you 🙌🏼

When the wire nuts are removed from the old ballast, good practice is to clip the twisted ends of the wires and then strip them so that they have straight bare ends that are about the same length as the straight stripped ends of the wires from the new ballast. Then twist the wire nut until there are a few turns of the insulated wire just behind the wire nut. You want to do this so that the spring in the wire nut twists together the bare ends inside. This is especially important for the black and white lines where you're tying together three conductors. One of the common causes of failures and even fires is arcing inside the wire nut because the conductors are not fully twisted together.

I wish KZfaq allowed photos. My Ballast doesn’t have a number on it. It has a white Ignition in the fixture. I replaced it and it still will not light. How do I replace the Ballast if it doesn’t have a number on it? Starring and Company INC is no longer in existence I guess. It says Bridgeport, Conn. but couldn’t find a listing. I would appreciate any advice Please?

I sure do appreciate you for doing this. You make it so I can follow along. God bless you for caring.😊

Very helpful thank you

This video is just want l needed info on. Regarding fitting the unit through the door. Thank you so much.

nicely done, ty for the video

Very Good

Lifesaver. Finally, someone with clear instructions

Relied on this video to move our treadmill from floor 1 to floor 2. This information got us there step by step 🙌🏻

Great video. I removed the same type Acorn stairlift using this video. I’m a 79 year old and I was able to do this myself! & a friend Thanks For your help !

Bro I really appreciate the time it took to do this video. We’re having new carpet installed and I had to get the treadmill out of there and forgot how it went together. This video saved the day. Thanks so much. This is what KZfaq should be about.

Nice solution. I have a flymo 460 sde that broke its handle. Its a really bad design with a heavy mower. 2 side arms attached to the deck with resin discs that attach them to a 1 piece handle . I think the design was made so you can lift the mower by lifting the handle up, pivoting the mower around the front wheels. You cannot push the handle down to pivot it on the back wheels lifting the front. The resin discs are adapted for a curved handle end. It was designed to fail.

not the mower handle i'm trying to fix ryobi 40101 someone disassembled but couldn't put back together *excellente video* *ARGH!* 🏴‍☠

Nose to the wind

Awesome Video 👏👏👏👍 Why would they make those crappy cheap Nylon outlets, I have a GE too, they are threaded horribly...

Good soup bud! I appreciate the help! 🤘💚🤘

Hey there, thank you for your very detailed and instructional video. I have to install a couple ballasts tomorrow at my job and have never installed one before Ill subscribe and check out more of your videos

My faucet is newer, no idea what brand, does one size fit all?

My P trap was clean and not clogged. I still have water not draining.

Hey, thanks so much for this video. This was way easier than I thought it would be thanks to your tutorial.

The French word to use here is not viola (a string instrument slightly larger than a violin) but voilà (pronounced vwäˈlä).

Thank you.. saved time and money for me 👍

Thank you so much your video helped us to fix our hot tap problem todah

Can faulty inlet valve leave water in the bottom?
