Review on πŸ”Œ Enhanced Pigtail Applications with Legrand Seymour 201CC12 by Vincent Poolaw

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is the best rubber lamp socket available

Basically I bought all of these brands to find the best one. I started with the Leviton version but found the shortcuts tab below terrible. If you connect a lamp with a longer center pin, the tab may bend down too much to work with other lamps. This Pass & Seymour has a much better design and should last forever. I wanted to use this to mount a lamp on a panel and didn't want to use a two piece porcelain light fixture or a large keyless key. I wasn't sure how this would work, but with a 1-1/2" hole in 1/16" sheet metal, it can be driven all the way to the edge where the rubber compresses and holds the mount in place. It doesn't slip out or rotate, and when the bulb is screwed in, the rubber makes contact and helps hold it securely. I just bought 2 more for another project!

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled
