(The model of LED flush mount ceiling light fixture we're using here is a Hampton Bay.)

Also, remember that LED lights work much better on CL dimmer switches. In an upcoming video, we will show how to install a CL dimmer for your LED replacement light fixture--but be sure that whatever model of light fixture you buy, it is dimmable, and compatible with your brand of dimmer.
