  • Worked in our outdoor lights.
Number of Items: 5 Style: Standard/E26
These fit perfectly in our outdoor hanging lights from Lowe’s. The cap fits down into the socket and the socket seals around the cap. These were perfection! They work perfectly and were not expensive either.

  • Perfect fit for outdoor lights
Number of Items: 5 Style: Standard/E26
These are a perfect fit. They screw in like the light so are secure and cover the entire opening so no issues of water getting into the sockets. There is still a slight handle on top to remove when needed.

  • Love it
Number of Items: 5 Style: Standard/E26
I have a large vanity mirror and the bulbs come down the sides and I just wanted to remove some so I needed a plug. These are great. Sturdy and reliable. Would purchase again.

  • There's different sizes, do your research to ensure you get proper fit
Number of Items: 5 Style: Standard/E26
Perfect filler for unused sockets! Great for active households with pets, children, handicapped..... Utter chaos! I suffer macular degeneration and enjoy my ambient lighting & novelty lamps. Many times a socket isn't filled and we can't have that! I purchased the e26 model for standard u.s. size(s) but there's alternative sizes to choose from. Sturdy, easy to grip and use, thus far fits perfectly 🥰 Stays secure 💯 💪 so far, very pleased with these dummy plugs, no issues unlike a few brands I've dealt with over the years of trial and error. I recommend 👌 👏 👍 TYVM 🤩 ... show more
