Title: Recessed fluorescent sockets for H.O. fluorescent lights
Post by: Jace the Gull on April 04, 2010, 09:14:53 PM: I am looking for 2 sets of those sockets (2 of them with springs and 2 for opposite sides) I tried looking all over myself such as hardware stores and stuff, even tried finding a fixture with them...no luck! The only ones I found for sale was the 8 footer fixtures which are way too big and too pricey........I wouldn't mind getting the sockets alone....they are for the powergroove I have.....

I MIGHT have a ballast for it....although I need to figure out since I only have ONE lamp....It is for my fluorescent machine display I have been working on.

Thanks!

There's also a bunch of them on ebay right both the plunger and the fixed ones. You could also try asking a local electrical supply place.
