Waste of Time: Avoid These

Through trial and error, I found that these collars were not worth the hassle. While they may seem like a viable solution for retaining adapters, they ended up causing more problems than they solved. The pros? Well, I can't think of any. The cons? They were difficult to install, didn't stay in place, and ultimately failed to provide the necessary support. Save yourself the trouble and look for a different solution.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Sizing may require trial and error

Not suitable for electrical appliances

These suction cups cannot be bought online. Thread and diameter are too incompatible. Very disappointing. The product is too cheap to bother with returns. Avoid.

Pros
  • Wide application: you can use them with a base screw socket to fix the glass lampshade, let them decorate the lamps on the mirror or vanity lamp or bathroom lamp, and install a new glass wall lampshade, except you can also use them to replace your broken or old ones
Cons
  • Not sure

Wrong dimensions! Not suitable.

Media failed to load. The size is totally wrong. on both! I have a 2008 Hampton Bay 3 light fixture from Home Depot. Porcelain settings measure exactly 1.5 inches from the outside edges of the threads. These 1.5" white plastic socket rings are way too big and won't screw in. They literally slide right onto the bushing threads (see video). Also, the black ones are supposed to be 1 3/8 inches, but they are actually 1 1/4 inches. Also, they are made of plastic. Didn't realize that when I bought…

Pros
  • Contents: Pack of 12 white and black lamp rings; They fit 12 lampshade rings of E26 and E27 sockets, but do not fit all sockets with E26 thread, they can only fit 1.34" (34mm) and 1.54" (39mm) diameter with E26 -threads are used. Lampholders, measure socket before purchasing
Cons
  • Available in black only
