If you have 2 ballasts in your fixtures, this is the video to watch. I created it because the only videos I could find were for 1 ballast.

How to fix an air conditioning unit that's leaking into the house. For through the wall and window mounted AC units.
I continually found myself asking "why" during this video. Why swap the red and blue wires? Why remove the sockets? I had to give up on this video. Sorry.
Maybe you can also protect the inside pipes with a very hard piece of metal before drilling to lessen the chance of an accidental hole?
I have no red coming from the ceiling box where do I connect the red wires in fixture to??
I heard they have a Nobu now
Could you stop?
Howard - you are most definitely the man - many thanks!
Thanks
The power comeing in is a red and white
10:10pm I have 4 bulbs 2 ballast 1 ballast 2 light the other ballast 2 light 1 switch can you tell me how to wire it please
Will this work on my setup where the inside bulbs are controlled by a separate switch from the outside bulbs?
Your cameraman sucks. Can’t see where your black line is. I can’t see where your wires are coming out.
I have no idea why am I watching this. But That was a awesome explanation of details. Thank you 👍👍
ASS
"You tell me the difference between stupid and illegal and I'll have my wife's brother arrested." God, I want to use that line someday.
yeah... I did that on a old unit. nicked the coil and pop hissssssss went my dreams. be careful and it works great. Just be sure to not put the hole too low, the ring needs to be able to pick up some water.
Then I can dump into my biodegradable garbage bags also. Nice idea. Ordering the pans today.
"no but seriously a colonic once a year"
"ASS!"
I'm confused. He's supposedly showing a 2 ballast four bulb fixture retrofit, but then he ends up showing only a 1 ballast 2 bulb retrofit, saying "it's just the same!" If that's the case, then it's no problem viewing the videos of 2 bulb-1 ballast retrofitting, which he starts his video saying didn't show the 4 bulb-2 ballast retrofitting. I think the wiring to the 8 end connections of the 4 bulbs is different than a 1-ballast 2 bulb fixture?
This is the best litter robot video there is. You are fantastic. I'm just starting to use the aluminum lasagna pan for the waste drawer. It works perfectly and is the best solution. I'm thrilled. Thank you so much for making such a good suggestion!!!. Dennis
Hello, and thank you for this! How often do you change the tin? I'm assuming it gets gunky over time?
That was funny
I thought so too. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
ON THIS VIDEO, DID YOU USE SINGLE ENDED OR DUEL ENDED LAMPS? DOES IT MATTER?
Sir, I know you didn't just put your bare hands in the poop tin...
That’s so freaking smart thank you!!!!
Hi there, I have a question I'm hoping you can answer. My two-ballast four-bulb set up has two red, yellow, and blue wires coming out of either end, just like in your video. However, my set up also has three different holes where two black and two white wires are entering (one hole on each end and one in the middle). I am guessing that I connect white-white and black-black from either end and treat the middle hole as the true hot and neutral connections?
Can you send me a picture? howard.m.alt@gmail.com
@@footballalt I don't necessarily have to use GE brand. They would be more convenient instead of ordering online with a waiting period for delivery. My real concern is the tombstones. Shunted vs non shunted. I've done a ton of research and still haven't really got a clear answer. When doing this T8 type B bulb bypass. Will shunted tombstones short my led tubes causing damage or fire hazard? If I wire one end neutral and the other end hot. Then use the correct bulbs. What type tombstones should I use? Shunted or non shunted.
Great idea - thank you!
You're welcome. Enjoy the new convience.
Where do you purchase the trays? I can’t find that size. TIA
Have you heard the good news from Jesus?
New unit, already had "Handy" man kill last one, drilling drain hole from Outside! Theyre supposed to know more than me & He was from NYC Im from Fla, HE depleted my Savings ! Never Had this prob, in my Life of window ACs! Its now tilted down right & STILL makes condensation on the bottom of plastic, Directions say there is a plug, friend helping me refused saying there wasnt one. Today I will try to locate plug again, have filled in soft foam inside, no difference, continuous, we are having 90+ weather, but, Im sure we did before too, I made an aluminum cover draping for shade over it- nothing.
Hi, this looks so much easier. I hate those plastic bags that take forever to get into place. I have 2 questions if you don't mind: 1. Does the litter robot recognize how full it is on the wifi connection 2. How deep are those pans. I have a link for those dimensions from Aldi to make sure this is the right dimensions as well. Thank you for such a useful life hack.
You need to provide a drawing of the wires to the tombstones
🤣You do not have to take the sockets down. The fixtures and non-shunts are already wired correctly for DEP led tubes. First disconnect power. After removing the ballast all you have to do is join all the yellows together from both ends. Connect yellows to common White from home service. Then bundle all reds & all blues together from both ends. Connect to line black. Top off with wire nuts. You're done! If you have a traveler wire, red or blue for seperate fixture. Wire to line....black! It's that simple. He's doing to much work when there is an easier way.
Nice. I could have used your wisdom 3 years ago. 🙃
I think this maybe the answer to my questions about the bypass. I have multiple fluorescent 4 lamp fixtures. 40 to be exact. I have multiple ballasts that have went bad. Instead of replacing them I want to do the bypass for led. My fixtures are old and have brittle tombstones. They're shunted tombstones with the paper backing held on with a metal staple/clip. Now I need to know. If I wire red and blue to line(black) then yellow wires to common white. Do I need non shunted tombstones?
@@keithbell8690 yes sir non-shunted tombstones for most LEDs lamps. I recommend buying a package of all new tombstones non-shunted of course. Because old tombstones can get brittle over time. New lamp= new tombstones! 🤷🏾♂️👷🏾♂️⚡
@@philipstiger4737 Thanks for the reply! I plan on buying leds and non shunted tombstones in bulk. Do you have any recommendations on where to buy or a good brand?

*So amazingly quiet and **Fastly.Cool** in my room! 42db is at a whisper level. I bought 2 and installed myself.Very sturdy bracket and easy to adjust to fit windows of different size. Absolutely fabulous units!!*
Genius!!!
Awesome 👏 can’t believe you just touched that tin though with your bare hands after emptying it
Lol. Fortunately soap and water did the trick.
LOL. Thanks
....when people realize you can use regular trash bags too.... 😶
I just buy bags on amazon. You aren’t saving that much money. The ones I buy on amazon are $20 for 100 bags. That lasts a long time. I can’t imagine having to reuse that old tin tray. Each time there gets poop or piss residue, it’s going to stick to the pan. That may start to smell or attract bugs. Gross! Unless you wash it out each time you change it. I’d much rather just buy bags and not have to wash it that often…..they aren’t that much money……Seemed like a cool hack at first though
I use the 10 gal bags from costco, perfect fit, 4 rolls in a box. Only takes me like 10 seconds to put bag in clips. I tried just draping the bag around the sides of the waste drawer but I think that detects the sensor sometimes and stops it, so i just push bag in the clips. I suppose some double sided tape might work instead of using the clips in my case. Your idea is a great option for some, but i prefer to stick to what I'm used to. I'm about to purchase the ramp to see if that helps my senior cat.
For when you don't want to spend 5 cents every week to put the 13 gal bag directly in the waste drawer?
Super idea, thank you so much. Just found this on UA-cam when it first comes up, so glad vid is still up after these past yrs.
Howard you touched cat pee at the end!
I can’t find containers in this size to save my life!! Just wondering, has anyone tried another size and has it worked?? Thanks for any help in advance!!
You can also use 9 x 13 Aluminum Foil Pans
Shalom, Thank you for the informative video. After watching I was all set to change out my bulbs, but then I found slim low profile LED can lights. I installed them and they look great. What I would now like to do now, is remove the old fluorescent fixtures. In your video, you mentioned that involves a lot of work. I am clueless as to begin. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks again for the video. Michael
Can you send me some pictures?
Sure, how do I send them?
its T-8 or T-12?
T8
thank you
OMG!!! You rock!! Thank you. I just got a litter robot and I will definitely try this. Putting the bags seem so wasteful
Seems like a good idea thanks. Only thing i can think of is that the holes may get clogged up easily, has that been the case for anyone?
Never happened to me. Good luck.
You just defeated the whole purpose of buying the litter robot. you can't even use the excuse that you do what you're doing because bags are expensive when you're still using a bag every single time you empty it. You're the classic example of a moron that buys an expensive product that actually makes things easier for you and then adding extra steps to make it more difficult.
Nice
Hi Howard, check my video “Litter Robot 3 Easier/Cheaper bag idea.” It similar to yours, which I love and would use definitely if I’d found it before and not after my own fix idea. You might like this new idea because it skips the need to empty the tray, nothing falls down along the sides of the tray, no chance of spilling anything when dumping it, and much quicker. Maybe you’ll like it better, cheers! Thanks for the tip though on another way!
Like it. I still find the tin to be less work but that's just personal preference. Very creative solution. I also like your plastic flap idea over the felt!!! Thanks for sharing.
