In my kitchen there are 3 florescent light fixtures connected by metal flex tubing, in a box in the ceiling.
At some point I switched from florescent tubes to LED tube lighting.
Today flipping the power switch doesn't turn on any of the lights.
Since all three lights failed together, I'm guessing it's something more complicated than the lights burned out?
Something like a ballast (that I can't see) failed or rats chewed on wiring?
I'm not sure how you connect a meter to an LED light with 4 pins to see if it's burned out.
there is a little tool you can get at the hardware store that lights up when it touches active current
mine has sometimes helped me locate problems like this

I made my first quilt blocks!
Thanks to the #QuiltersOfMastodon for giving me the confidence and advice I needed to get started with #quilting
I ordered some supplies online, but I was so excited to get started that I went ahead and made a few 4 Patch blocks with some fabrics I had on hand. I think I might use the rest of these prints to make either a bench cushion for my sewing table or a new blanket for my dog.
I can see now how getting the seams to line up is going to be a pain ...
I like to say "1/8 inch & be there" (akin to the photography saying of "F8 & be there", meaning it's better to get the shot than miss it because of fiddling with the camera).
I'll spend far too long getting a point to match up even though I know that after it's washed, it won't draw attention to itself. Finished is better than perfect!
