Lamp Holder Convertors

[Russ1109]

Hi Guys

I have seen a few convertors for lamp holders. Customer want to fit LED lamps in his care home. Most of the fittings have 26w 4 pin lamps

Does anyone know if you can get these to convert from 4 pin CFL lamps to standard lamp holders so as to fit LED lamps

Cheers

just change the fittings to '2D' LEDs ?

These are the type of lights cut into the tiles on a grid ceiling.The lamp is recessed up into the fitting.

He's got loads of the 40w tubular flouresents that I'm removing the gear and replacing with 15w LED trays but hes asking can we just change the bulbs in the others.

I dont think they even do LED's in that type of lamp yet so thats why I was thinking of the adapters

Do you mean that they are PL lamps?

If so you're right, they don't do a LED replacement,,,, it'll either be a whole new fitting or keep what's there

Ive not seen any 28W PL can lamps before,

got any links?

but Id agree with Noz, not seen any PL LEDs either.

One of my biggest clients has a mixture of 26w and 28 W lamps some are two pin some are 4 pin......I NEVER get the correct one first time26w 2 pin in the utilities and 28W 4 pin on the corridors....or the other way around

There is a replacement LED lamp in 2 or 4 pin

Just change the pendent fitting for a more sensible one!
