The socket works. And theres a ton of em out there. They'd be silly not to make lamps for it.

They are making some radical designs, or should I say different in lighting. We had a rep bring in an LED highbay fixture that was just a flat plate. It had LED's all over and it was really freaking cool. I have yet to sell one yet though as they are expensive and getting people to spend more money is tough when I can get an equally as good LED fixture that looks like a traditional fixture for much less.
