Ive seen pictures of cfls being directly plugged into power strips or any kind of outlet..
Did someone rig these up somehow, or do they have something a bulb can screw into that has a male end to plug into the wall??
THanks in advance..these would help me out a GREAT deal...
Yeah, it's a little short socket/prong adapter thing. I have no idea where to find them but you could try searching electrical supply houses.
Thanks stinky!
Any hardware store should have one of these...
It's a 'two prong light socket adapter'.
I don't recommend doing any electrical work unless you are sure you know exactly what you're doing. So, since you have to ask, no.
Do you have a local hardware store?
Print the picture of the socket adapter and show it to someone there. I'm 99% sure they will have one.
id be a little cautious with those however. if the bulb is hanging by a plug, it cant be that secure....
with minimal wiring and carpentry skills, you can wire up a few cheapo light sockets to a harging board pretty uick and easy.
its pretty much just telling the plus and minus apart (ones gold, ones silver) and wrapping the twisted wires in electrical tape to secure the connection safely.
note that this is still an incredibly stupid ghetto method that is not advisable. but its working ok for me!
