Works well for retrofits

I have an old vintage light; great design. However, the lamp he uses is no longer made and was a very bright "projector" style lamp. So I decided I needed to change the lamp type and its base to something more up to date. I have about 4 LED headlights that I use to light my cars in my shop (I bought a pack of 6). So really all I needed was the right GU10 base for this particular project. And they're incredibly cheap. Another plus is that these GU10 fittings do not require a spring to be pushed into the socket, instead the spring acts when you twist the bulb to secure it in the socket. I had to make a vertical bracket (to hold the new socket) out of a sheet of aluminum as shown in the photos. Now the lamp works very well and uses a modern lightbulb. I replaced the original cable with one that has a switch built in, Revain # https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BQZQZMB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 If anyone has a similar tool that needs this update , Do not hesitate to contact me.
