Review on πŸ”Œ Leviton 3152 8-Pack White-1 by Ray Richards

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is a lamp socket

I used this to replace a candelabra socket in a ceiling fan as there is a much wider range of medium sized socket bulbs available. The screw terminals are well thought out; Not only do they rely on the screws themselves to hold the wire, but they also have small clamps that force the wire to be clamped between the screw and the clamp, which helps when the wires used don't have the perfect loops are from a non-residential electrician's textbook, but instead are a bit shorter and/or messier. I removed the bracket that came with the kit and installed it over the existing bracket instead. The screw turned out to be slightly different, but was easy enough to remove and replace with a screw from the original socket. All in all, it's what you'd expect: one of those anonymous and unspectacular little utilitarian techs that's nonetheless vital to modern day comfort.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
