      @@Mr.How-To I would suggest you at least say that in the video, or do it the proper way. A LOT of people will watch these videos and think it’s ok.

      @@oneisnone7350 I totally agree! POWER OFF WHILE WORKING WITH ELECTRICS!! Anything else is just looking for trouble. You may be able to get away with it for a while, but that breeds complacency, and electricity is VERY forgiving of mistakes! Stop doing the macho bullshit thing and show your audience you know how to work on stuff SAFELY!

    You're posting this video for DIYers but you fail to mention shutting off the breaker before removing cover, etc. Oh, I stand corrected...You're working on a live circuit. Unbelievable. 141 subscribers. Hopefully it doesn't go any higher.
