Purchased 2 Chinese lamps from England; the bulb fittings don't support USA light bulbs - help.
Summary: monsu-26 expressed a concern about purchasing two Chinese lamps from England, which have bulb fittings that are incompatible with USA light bulbs. disneyshopper responded, but their content does not offer a solution or further information.
The fittings for the light bulbs are brass, smooth (round), and have 2 brass pins rising from the base that can
be depressed. I cannot find light bulbs for these even though there are some pin light bulbs advertised for cabinet fixtures, they are not vertical, they veer off to each side and differently shaped. Seller showed photo with lights on and the small, low-watt bulbs looked like USA bulbs, but the fixtures inside the lambs do not support our standard screw-in light bulbs with our black contact bases.
Where can I get bulbs to work with these?
Thank you!
