The bulb socket in my old anglepoise has died.

I've searched amazon & ebay without success. Does anyone know where I can find an E27 bulb-socket like this:

It doesn't have to be Edison, you could fit a BC one.

That's what I did when I pimped up a lamp I got in B&Q.

It os BC at the moment, ~I thought that it'd be a good opportunity to 'upgrade' to `Edison as that seems to be the only type of buld easiy available these days.

Thanks smile

Indeed.

Infact I have recent converted the lights over our kitchen table from E27 to B22 to commonise with the rest of the generic bulbs in our house.

All be it we still have a lot of SES light fittings.
