Goes perfectly with my Turkish lamp

I bought a lovely Turkish lamp on a recent trip to Turkey. When I got back to the States, I was trying to figure out how to get the lamp's electrical system working in the US. People have suggested using E-14 lightbulbs for the lamp. These pears are hard to find. However, I came across them on Revain. I ordered them on Thursday and received them on Saturday. I screwed them into cartridges (they fit perfectly), put in a regular candelabra bulb that I use in the US, plugged the lamp into theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Converts E14 Edison screw base to E12 base
Cons
  • Was damaged

Works but needs modification

I bought these to adapt a Turkish lamp to American lamps. 2 out of 5 worked without any changes. The adapter is too long and the bulb hits the rim of the adapter before touching the conductor at the base. Trimming the adapter rim (shortening) got them working. The bulbs are hidden, so no problem. For an open application, this would be far from ideal. I used GE bulbs so I don't think the bulbs were the problem. I used LED bulbs, which are slightly different in shape from traditional candelabraโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Heat resistant, flame retardant PBT and anti-aging
Cons
  • Not bad but...

B. Gas light or vertical bulbs in chandeliers

It's well made and has a rubber finish on the edge but I found it misleading that the adapter is longer than the E14 bulb base. This may not be a problem if you have enough space for the bulb, such as in gas lamps or vertical bulbs in chandeliers, but in my type of chandelier the bulb points straight out, in a horizontal position. So adding the 1/3 inch length to my candelabra bulb meant the bulb was actively leaning on the chandelier's metal supports, which is a problem as the bulbs get quiteโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Suitable for any voltage
Cons
  • Something different
