Install a permanent AC light fixture - PEP BB electricity.sand.AC fixture

I now have more pics to include the new light fixture I installed in this room:

The utility room was slated for a heavy-duty powerwall installation, but it was only lit initially by a single naked incandescent bulb. I saw some LED lights on clearance at Lowe's and thought it was worth trying for $8/ea.  They were rated at 5000 Lumen, so why not?

It was an upgrade in the amount of light in the room, but several of the fixtures were broken in the box, and they were all pretty flimsy so I could see why they were being discontinued. As we progressed on the powerwall installation, it occurred to me that we'd have room in load center for both a light circuit and a 20 amp utility circuit, so I added those breakers, but didn't have all the components to install the light or outlet yet. Most of the useful task lighting for this job came from folding rechargeable bar lights.

We hung the new LED flat panel light fixture and connected the BX whip to it, to return later with the missing hardware because it took 2 people to hold the light fixture while measuring the chain to hang it from, and also to hang it.

A few days later, I returned alone with the offset conduit fitting, the box, and the mixed box cover, and finished the job. The Edison base fixture with the hard-to-find-in-the-dark pull string has now been retired, and there's a little glow from the GFCI outlet to guide to the light switch.

I also swapped the florescent fixture in adjacent server room from a florescent fixture to LED in this same project, because they were sold in 2-packs,although the server room came first, and the leftover panel install is what's mostly shown here.

The owner was so thrilled with the new LED lighting that they had me replace all the other florescent fixtures in the basement, but I don't think I took pictures of that part...

In this Badge Bit, you will replace or install a permanent AC light fixture.

Wiring varies greatly, just be safe when pursuing this BB

To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
  - install new or replace existing permanent AC light fixture

To show you've completed this Badge Bit, you must provide:
   - a picture of the current location that needs a new light fixture
   - a picture of the installation midway through
   - a picture of the finished installation with the light turned on

Here's another permanent 120 VAC light fixture installation/replacement, so if it's a duplicate, it can be applied to the next level.

My wife and I decided (for different reasons) that it was time to retire the old kitchen light fixture. It's one with a stacked set of circular florescent tubes, and they both work most of the time (for me), but my wife isn't tall enough to tap it when it hesitates... We went shopping for a replacement and chose one she's willing to try, and I was willing to accept.

This fixture is controlled by a pair of 3-way switches, and I discovered after removing the old fixture, whoever installed it and the wiring, incorrectly switched the neutral leg, not the hot! There's not enough slack wiring in the switch box to correct that, so for now, I'll have to just install the light and come back later when I'm willing to open up the walls and ceiling to rewire it. The old wiring is the old silk-wrapped tar, but it's in grounded BX conduit.  The inspector must have been sleeping to miss the neutral switching during the initial construction?

In any case, it's up, the boss is happy with the amount of light in the kitchen, and the breaker didn't blow when I was done.
