E27 bulb holder

[jojocool555]

have been using a HPS bulb but have been having trouble keeping heat down in small space so ive slowly been converting to CFLs. i have bought a 125w spiral bulb with E27 screw tread, not the big thread (E40) but smaller (E27). and for love nor money i have not been able to find any thing to plug it in. I can find E40 and bayonet hangers and light reflectors but nothing in E27, beginning to think i have wasted my money unless i can find a solution. any ideas ??

E27 is your basic house light bulb socket. Try looking in the automotive, or home workshop area of your local store for a work light reflector.

yeah did think of that inspection light type , and will use that for my main 125w CFL bulb. but this is not enough Watts,so have 7 x 24w bulbs,would like to find 'hanger type easy plug 'found them on ebay with reflector n bulb and whole bloody kit. just want to plug in bulbs, Daisy chain 'like' around tent but with 7 x bulbs space and cost is issue.
