Features

  • This is 4P, NOT FOR 2P;Need BYPASS OR REMOVE the ballast, otherwise, it doesn't light on. G24q Series (Female Socket Fixture) to E26 (Male Bulb Base) Adapter - Q series has a shorter tip than D series and is more common in the US.
  • THE BALLAST IN YOUR FIXTURE MUST BE REMOVED OR BYPASSED FOR THESE ADAPTERS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. CONSULT AN ELECTRICIAN IF YOU ARE UNSURE. DO NOT OPERATE A LED BULB WITH A BALLAST IN THE FIXTURE, DOING SO WILL LIKELY DAMAGE THE BULB.
  • All pin-based CFL, like GX24Q G24d Gx24d GX23 G23 are lamp-ballast separated, but all screw-in E26 E27 are lamp-ballast integrated. ballast is a must to start a high voltage(600V-1500V 1ms) to light up the CFL, but it is dangerous for LED Lamp. Because LED Lamp are built with LEDs and Driver which is transforming the 100-240V AC to DC for LEDs. So the LED Driver input should be 100V-240V or 85-265V, so 600-1500V will be too high, and easily destroy the led lamp.
  • There are some LED Driver who can be compatible with the ballast, no LED Driver can be compatible with all the ballast. So the best thing is bypass or remove once we want to change CFL to LED Lamp. When we remove pin-based CFL, we only removed the lamp, the ballast is still working in front fixture; even we change to E26/E27 CFL, there will be 2 ballasts, the light will not work.

    • Works great with the following caveat.,
Just be sure to wire the hot wire colored wires (the reds in my home) coming out of the fluorescent bulb socket you are converting to the black hot wire you remove from going to the ballast and both (blue in my home) neutral wires to the white return wire because according to others both posts aren't wired so this way at least juice flows through one. Since I always did I never had a problem and have installed at least three now. It's just getting the metal housing out of the way to GET to the ballast and then getting it back in place which are the only hard parts to this job. ... show more

Doesn't work! Light doesn't come on but it heats up anyways. Probably will cause fire it left unattended. Don't buy.

    • They apparently do not like to be turned on and off
I got tired of replacing my expensive cfl bulbs in the kitchen. They apparently do not like to be turned on and off. I removed the ballasts and inserted these in the socket. They work like a charm with my led bulbs. Hopefully it will be many years before I have to replace anything.

    • Easy installation
These adapters plug in easily and are easy to remove from the light socket, unlike an actual four prong light bulb which feel like their going to break in my hand as I try to remove them from the light socket. However, CAUTION to anyone thinking of purchasing these adapters so they can use screw in type florescent or LED bulbs. SCREW in LED and/or florescent bulbs will not work. You will have to disconnect the ballast of the current light fixture before these will work. You can use an incandescent bulb without any modifications. I do not recommend these adapters unless you know how to bypass your current light fixture ballast. ... show more

    • No Warning/Caution Label
This product worked perfectly in my fans after removing the ballast, no issues. The reason I'm giving it 3 starts; there is no warning label to attached to the permanent light fixture indicating that the lamp socket has been retrofitted, ballast has been remove, LED only or something. Not knowing; somebody can removed this adapter and plugin a regular CFL bulb creating a hazardous condition. There no certification marking or label on the adapter them self, the include instructions do have the European certification logo of CE. I would recommend this adapters if they came with a Warning or Caution label. ... show more

    • Great product!
Product worked exactly as expected, highly recommended. After wiring to bypass the ballast, was able to use these socket adapters to easily install the Halo LED retro-fit kit, no more dreaded CFL lights.
