Default Re: Lamp adapter query.

The one ES lampholder-adaptor I remember was intriguing in that though it had a straight-through connection to continue to power the bulb, the 'socket' function was actually for a pair of 2-pin 5-amp plugs, which stuck out horizontally, one on each side. That must have made fitting any kind of lampshade rather difficult - at least the usual types to take a BC 'plug' had the sockets angled downwards.
