ABSTRACT:
A push-in light socket adapter for use with a conventional household light bulb socket for facilitating a rapid removal and replacement of a light bulb. The adapter includes a threaded socket body which may be engaged to the household light bulb socket in place of the light bulb. The light bulb may then be inserted directly into the adapter without rotating the bulb. The adapter allows a removal of a burnt-out light bulb by a simple pulling motion which releases the bulb from the socket body. A new bulb may then be easily inserted into the adapter by pushing it into the socket body. The light socket adapter further includes an indicator light operable to indicate both a supply of electrical power to the device and a presence of the light bulb within the socket body.
