Base-type lamp holders (or socket-base lamp holders) are compact components designed for applications where space is limited, or the lamp needs to be mounted directly onto a flat surface. Unlike traditional hanging lamp holders, these models are fixed to a base or support, making them ideal for specific projects that require stability and discretion. At Lighting DIY, we offer a wide range of E27, E14 and other standard socket types in different finishes and materials.
