Review on πŸ”Œ Phenolic Medium Sockets for Creative Hobbyists by Zach Flores

Revainrating 2 out of 5

NOT compatible with Target lampshades (top mount)

The inner socket (the part that holds the lamp) wobbles in the outer case, mainly because there is no liner/cushion (that piece of hard material). ). , a thick paper-like tube usually found inside the cartridge assembly. Luckily I was able to use one of the discarded lightbulbs after making a custom cut to make it fit. Also, they do NOT fit the type of lampshade Target sells β€” the kind that has a low lampshade spider that sits right on top of the cartridge frame and doesn't use a harp. For one of my lamps, it didn't matterβ€”the one I had had a harp, a pommel and an alternative shade, with another I had to switch to a completely different socket.

Pros
