Inside the housing, the light bulb attachment means is electrically connected to the two electrical contact posts. The quick release base consists of a generally cylindrical housing that is open on the top surface, hollowed out on the inside, and closed on the bottom surface. The inside of the bottom surface possess two electrical connection slots. The outside of the bottom surface possesses two electrical input posts.
