E12 Candelabra Socket,TWDRTDD Black 3-Pack Candelabra Base Lamp Holder Light Socket Black (Full Uno Thread and Ring)

Nothing short of TERRIFIC to fix my expensive Williams Sonoma artsy-craftsy tri-light candelabra chandelier fixtures that my husband said….”Don’t Get!” And my overpriced know-nothing electrician claimed….”Impossible to Repair”. These little sockets solved 2 problems…..repairing the burned-out melted bases due to the 35 watt incandescent bulbs that generated far too much heat….especially turned upside down AND allowed me to start using 6 watt cool-to-the-touch LED’s! All for about $5! And they were so easy to replace! Even a cave man or cave woman can do it! My cave man did it for me! These are wonderful! If the style matches your fixture…..BUY ‘EM! You won’t regret it! Then go tell your over-priced electrician….”Yes, they can! And I did it!”

As noted by another reviewer, there are no instructions included with these lamp sockets. They do lock once screw together; however, you can use a small screwdriver or pick to push a tab down to unscrew them. No big box store carries this socket, and Amazon’s price for three of these is great.

Just what I needed

Given the lack of instruction, it is easy to mistake how they work. The smaller metal side is not for the light bulb and is small b/c it is designed to fit ceiling mount couplings. The size is correct for E12 on the plastic side. However, directions on how to put it together would be very helpful.

This does not fit an E12 bulb!

Worked on exactly as expected.

I used these to fix an antique lamp that used these type sockets. I had never seen these sockets before and glad I found them on Amazon. Just be careful not to screw the socket together until all wires are tightened because these sockets lock in place once screwed together. Great price for 3, too!!!

A favorite lamp toppled and the weight of the glass shade broke the light socket. I initially thought it'd be possible to repair but alas... This item contained the exact same parts as were originally installed. It was honestly more work to remove the broken socket parts than it was to install the new parts. Good as new! Sure, I only needed only one but I would have gladly paid the same price for just the one.

En realidad si es fácil de armar. Solo hay que tener cuidado

Sockets were an exact fit for replacement of a 30 year old lamp. Well made and easy to use. Very pleased.

Bought these to replace sockets in a light fixture that we couldn't find bulbs for. Swapped them out and now can use chandelier bulbs that a readily available.

Poor quality plastic. It brakes easily.

That’s the one I was looking for
