Review on πŸ”Œ ABI Socket Adapter Medium Reducer - Streamline Your Socket Connections! by Richard Muncy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not for all Mogul branches!

This adapter did not work for me at first. The black flange over the threaded portion limits how deep the device can be screwed into the mogul socket. I thought that was my problem but reading other reviews I think I have a 3 pin socket that is not quite compatible with this adapter. I lifted the center tab in the adapter to make better contact with my lightbulb and that helped, but unfortunately not enough. If I screw this first onto a lightbulb and then into a live outlet, the light will flash when contact is made and opened, but I can't get it into a position where it stays safe. Unfortunately, it can't be returned on credit either, so I'll stick with it. I still don't know if it's because I have a 3-prong outlet or the outlet is too deep to contact this adapter.

Pros
  • Not suitable for incandescent lamps
Cons
  • Expensive
