About this deal

When you’re wondering what the difference between a medium and a miniature bi-pin socket is, it doesn’t just involve the size of the part itself.

A bipin or bi-pin (sometimes referred to as two-pin, bipin cap or bipin socket) is a type of lamp fitting.

The type of socket dictates how much power you can safely put through it without overloading or shorting out your home’s wiring.

A lowercase "q" at the end of the designation indicates that it is a quad-pin base, with two bi-pin pairs. The bayonet base consists of a base and a mating pin, which are designed to fit together in a specific way. In North America and continental Europe, Edison screws took the place of other types of bases for general lighting. Here is a light bulb base chart that includes pictures of conventional light bulb bases, such as fluorescent bases, LED light bases, automotive light bulb bases, halogen bases, etc. In the early days of electricity, the only standard connector was an Edison screw, and all appliances except light bulbs were hooked up to AC power through lamp sockets.

Capsule bulbs are commonly used in kitchens, display cabinets, chandeliers, pendants, and other fixtures that require a small, low-profile bulb. In addition to automotive lighting, wedge bases are also used in other applications such as outdoor lighting, commercial lighting, and theatrical lighting.

The base has a wedge-shaped groove that fits over a corresponding protrusion on the pin, and the pin is then pushed into the base to lock the connection in place.They are included in the IEC standard "IEC 60061 Lamp caps and holders together with gauges for the control of interchangeability and safety". You can simply replace your existing lamps or upgrade to the latest versions if you're feeling green. Wedge bases are a type of electrical connector that are commonly used in automotive lighting and other applications. They are included in the IEC standard “IEC 60061 Lamp caps and holders together with gauges for the control of interchangeability and safety”. The letter “E” in E26 refers to Edison Screw, the most standard of lamp bases, while the numerical “26” refers to its diameter in millimeters (approximately 1 inch).
