Why Upgrade Your Bulb Sockets?
Over time, factory-fitted bulb sockets can corrode or crack, causing flickering or non-functioning lights. Replacing a damaged socket holder is a quick, cost-effective fix that restores reliable electrical contact. Upgrading your bulbs to LED at the same time improves brightness and longevity — the U.S. Department of Energy notes that LED lighting uses significantly less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs.
