I want to remove the trim and guts of a recessed light, and install this shop light.
I want to turn the canister into sort of an electrical box by cutting off the bulb socket, and pigtailing it to the new light.
House was built in 1966, and i believe they used all metal boxes and wire with grounding sheaths.
So the only wires are the black and white.
Seems easy enough, but I'm no electrician. I know how to use a multimeter and test for ground, and I've installed a bathroom vanity light before.
Can this be done?
