But remember for a dimmer switch you need lights dimmable just in case you don’t know

Can I use regular light bulbs or do I need special ones?

Why don’t you twist the wires together first? I always thought you were supposed to

always a pet peeve of mine not seeing wires tied together before putting the wire nut on. 😂

I have a 115 year old house lol, I’m slowly swapping outlets, none of the boxes are grounded…luckily they are all metal so I can attach a ground wire to the box, but still getting open ground? Do I need to buy gfi outlets? Hoping no….because the price difference are staggering but also don’t want to burn down the house lol
