Review: Antiqued - Brilliant. Has the 'old' look I wanted
Review: Excellent Product and good value - I was immediately impressed with my purchase based on the detailed instructions that came with it. So often these days, products come with no instructions; if they do, they are frequently sketchy to the point of being useless. But this ElekTek product was of good quality, and with the instructions, I had it fitted to our refurbed table lamp in no time at all. I can highly recommend buying products from this seller.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: 60W or 100W?**
A: Our lamp holders feature a ceramic insert that enables up to 100w - they're tested to well above standard bulb wattages.

Many thanks,

**Q: I connected everything correctly the only thing i only have 2 wires brown and blue in my floor lamp no earth. the light did switch on. what do i do?**
A: Hi,

All our metal lamp holders MUST be earthed for safety reasons. With no safety earth to trip either an RCD or fuse in the event of the live or neutral wire coming loose inside and moving from the insulation of the ceramic insert to touch the metal of the lamp holder, electric shock will occur. 

Either (as someone else has mentioned) re-wire the lamp with 3-core wire that does have an earth, or alternatively, replace the metal lamp holder with a plastic one that doesn't require an earth.

Many thanks,
Buy It Better Customer Support

**Q: Hi, received the holder today but can’t unscrew the bottom piece to get in the wires, afraid I will break it ?**
A: The screw threads may have become forced together when it was assembled. Try some spray oil and use a  bit of force with some pliers if available. It should not break but be careful not to crush its shape. Another trick is to leave it somewhere hot to allow joints to expand and free themselves but don't burn yourself as metal is a good heat conducted. 
Hope you are successful.

**Q: Does this come with a cord grip?**
A: No, if you are suspending a bulb you will need our integrated cord grip version.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent
*by J***N on 28 December 2025*

Bought this to replace an oem item that had seized up and couldn't be removed intact. New lampshade sat waiting. Ordered 26th December and arrived one day later. Amazing delivery service from Amazon which is just as well because none of my local DIY stores had a replacement in stock. Easily fitted and the holder even had a small grub screw for an undersized screw fitting. All done, new lampshade fitted and a happy wife 😂😂😂
