Answer This Question

I see others have asked if this can be used outdoors, and I see the responses that say it’s for indoor use only. Is there an extender for outdoor use? I’m using it in an enclosed porch light (except bottom is open) that has a partial porch roof over it.

    Answer This Question

    This product is designed for indoor use with phenolic sockets only and is not rated for outdoor use. Even if your porch is covered, it's likely still exposed to some degree of moisture and temperature fluctuations, which could affect the performance and safety of this product.

        It would work if it was quality made.
        I give it a 1 star - 1 out of 4 worked. There are 2 spots of weakness on this design at the seams. There is no way to tighten the bulb to get them to tight in the socket.

        We have recently launched new products that require testing by electricians with specific qualifications. Could you please nominate or provide contact information for contractors who you believe would be suitable for testing these items?

          I'm using two in series in a late 1950's TV lamp to bring a short LED tube bulb to the center instead of the light being focused off center to the right of the lamp. They work with no problems. Yes, I'm using a 1950s TV lamp as bias lighting for a modern flat screen.

          Cheaply made junk
          Agree with the comments in other reviews about the contacts, they should have been made of springy-er metal. But the worst part is that I went to unscrew it and the threads, being made too thin and soft, sheared right off the plastic (see picture, damage is from trying to get the piece out of the socket). Cheaply made junk; wish the store would carry the nicer Halo porcelain one.

            This is the best Levitron Medium Base Socket Extender 2006 that I have ever purchased. It does such a great job of extending. Haven't ever seen anything like it before.
