Wanted Lamp Sockets

[James]

Hi all,

Looking for some lamp sockets for a Williams Laser Ball game, I know they are widely available new, but was wondering if anyone had some from a parted game, going CHEEP CHEEP. Ones I know I need currently are from the back box where some interesting use of blue tack...

Thanks all

I'd always buy new - those old metal bayonet Connector sockets degrade over time, the insulator shrinks giving a loose connection. There is a trick to get them going again, but I have had mixed success and takes longer than replacing so in the end I just bit the bullet and replaced with new ones - worked a treat first time.

See this http://www.pinrepair.com/em/index2.htm#connect
Section 2b, then the section "Fixing Lamp Sockets".

Just seen this that might be helpful for you - has lamp sockets and seems to be in your neck of the woods.
