Review on πŸ”Œ Ceramic Bi Pin Socket Covers: Efficiently Protect & Enhance Your Wiring System by Richard Marriott

Revainrating 5 out of 5

They are ideal for repairing some low voltage outdoor lights

They are ideal for repairing some low voltage outdoor lights. The springs in the old sockets seemed to be stuck and I couldn't put the new bulbs in. They fit perfectly and worked well. They don't have a bar cover over the insulation, but what appears to be silicone rubber material is used. which lets practically no heat through. I applied the soldering iron directly to the insulation for 20-30 seconds and there was no burn out or deformation. The wire gauge was thinner than the connector I replaced, but that shouldn't matter for such a short distance. I mainly use them for LED bulbs, which use less power and produce less heat than 20w halogen bulbs.

Pros
  • Two holes for lamp pins and two more holes for mounting screws
Cons
  • Price
