ELECTURE: As long as the fixture doesn't fall apart when installed, or the lampholder doesn't twist out when it's relamped, there's really not a major safety issue, is there?
==========================================

Had that happen years ago with a ceiling fan my mom bought from Macys when I was still a teenager. Everytime we would go to change the bulbs, the sockets would start twisting out off the nipples. It was an overpriced piece of crap.

We replaced some of the sockets with improved models but to no avail.

Eventually my mom called one day from work and told me to take the fan out and re-install the original porcelain lampholder that was there when we moved in. I gladly did so.

Needless to say, I wasn't very careful with that fan after I undid the splices in the the fixture box. Ever let a ceiling fan motor just ... drop? [Linked Image]
