Big Orange + other DIY organizations will never stock these Lamp Sockets - nor will the Staff know what they are (due to infamiliarity with these fixtures).

All CFLs I have seen at these places are Lamp/Ballast incorporated Assemblages with Medium Base sockets - intended to be used in lieu of an Incandescent Lamp -type A, R or PAR.

Look for these items at Commercial Lighting suppliers and Wholesale Houses.
They come in the Luminaires intended for use with the type of CFL shown (normally recessed cans).
Ballast is separate, and usually is an F-Can configuration.

What are you planning to do with this Lamp? Would another type Lamp be easier and safer?
