A light bulb socket, light bulb holder, light socket, lamp socket, or lamp holder is a device that physically supports and electrically connects an electric lamp. Lamp sockets enable the safe and straightforward replacement of lights. The size corresponds to an average home light bulb.
MVIKAS offers the most reliable Bulb Holders, with high quality and competitive cost. Along with the following:
Bi-pin Connector
Bi-pin Connectors are classified into two types
• A medium-pin connector is employed on either end of a T12 fluorescent light
• Mini-pin is used with MR16 halogen lights
The two-leg socket upgrades the bi-post design with lower legs to lower manufacturing costs. The 1000-watt FEL medium two-leg base halogen light allows contrivers to put the beacon into a lower orifice than was preliminarily doable with regular incandescent bulbs. Compared to the traditional side-fitted bulb or a double-concluded beacon, which requires two holes, this enhances effectiveness.
Another feature of the two-pin design is baseless glass envelopes in many contemporary lamp designs. In the glass envelope of the lamp base, the wire leads are thickened and crimped. The MR16 is an example of this design; the natural lamp is fitted into the reflector with the tips protruding and glued in with the ceramic paste.
Bi-Post
The lamp orientation is stabilized using bi-post bases, so the filament is always in the focus plane. Filament designs like the C13D (coiled, zigzagged) generate significantly more light perpendicular to the zigzag than parallel to it.
It is classified into three types:
• Mogul bi-post (G38) can take 100 amps and is used with searchlights and film and stage lighting equipment rated at 1000 watts or more. This design is used in incandescent, halogen, and HMI light sources.
• Medium bi-post (G22) is utilized with 250-1000 watt film and stage lighting equipment.
• Mini-bi-posting (G4-G6)
Wedge Base
The wedge base of miniature lights can be constructed of glass or plastic. The bottom might be an extension of the bulb's glass envelope, with the lamp's wire leads folded up at the base. Some wedge bases are plastic and may be placed over wire leads. By spring compression, a wedge base retains the lamp in the socket. Without twisting, the lamp is inserted and withdrawn. Wedge base lamps are commonly used in automotive applications, and many light strings employ wedge-based plastic bulbs.
Other wedge bases with S14s connectors include strip lights, also known as architectural lighting. These lamps, commonly used in display cabinets or above mirrors, have been mostly supplanted by LED counterparts.
