I had been wanting to change out my light switch for my loft lights to a dimmer switch. I finally got around to doing it!! Watch the video to see how to do a simple light switch change. As a sidenote: I said "tester" way too many times lol!

Update: I have been told by a friend that watched my video that the "load" wire is the outgoing electricity to the lights.
