A simple adapter from the bulb holder to the socket can be useful in public places where there are no stationary sockets for connecting electrical appliances, but there are only lamps with bulbs. It can be your porch, basement, etc.

There are times when you need to use a power tool in these places, and there is nowhere to power it. This simple device that can be made from a burnt out LED or energy-saving lamp will come to your aid.

What do you need for an adapter?

LED light bulb or other in a plastic case.
Wall socket with open installation.
A piece of wire with a cross section of 1-2 squares.

Manufacturing adapter socket - cartridge

We disassemble the light bulb, separating the glass sphere from the plastic. Usually it is glued and if you pry it off with a screwdriver, the sphere will move away from the plastic. Be careful.

We take out all the electronics from the insides and solder the wires to the lamp base. The operation requires skill and a thin soldering iron.

We clean the wires.

Disassemble the outlet. We drill a hole in the back of the power outlet.

Pass the wires into the hole.

We connect to the contacts. Twist.

Glue the socket to the lamp as in the photo. Hot or regular terminals.

We collect everything, twist the socket body.

Your adapter: socket-socket is ready! A thing is very necessary at times, so feel free to collect it, it is necessary to come in handy in the household.
