An end cap for mounting an LED support in a sign cabinet comprises a support-mating portion for mating with an LED support, the support-mating portion including a hollow portion into which an LED support can be inserted and a protruding portion that protrudes into the LED support; and a cabinet-contacting portion opposite to the support-mating portion, the cabinet-contacting portion including a cup section for contacting the cabinet and supporting the end cap and LED support within the cabinet.

A high-insulation integrated plastic lamp holder that does not require traditional American and European-standard copper lamp holders, comprising a high-insulation plastic body formed by injection molding. The top of the high-insulation plastic body is provided with a barrier, a first conductive component slot, and a second conductive component slot, and the barrier is located between the first conductive component slot and the second conductive component slot. The first conductive component slot and the second conductive component slot are inserted into positive and negative conductive sheets correspondingly, and the assembly of the lamp holder is simpler, which facilitates automatic production, thereby greatly improving the daily production capacity and insulation, and lowering the cost of production.

A linear LED lamp having a body with a length between spaced first and second ends. The linear LED lamp has an elongate heat sink and a light source comprising LED emitters and a first end cap assembly at the first end of the body. The first end cap assembly has conductive power and ground pins and a support connector has conductive power and ground terminals for connecting with an external power supply and providing a grounding path for components of the lamp. The power and ground pins of the first end cap assembly are configured to engage the power and ground terminals of the support connector as an incident of the first end cap assembly moving relative to the support connector in a path that is transverse to the length of the body into an engaged position. A sleeve connector is also provided for mounting a non-power end of a linear LED lamp to a light fixture.

A resulting light fixture can include a base light fixture having at least one light source and at least one first coupling feature, where the first coupling feature is configured to detachably couple to a second coupling feature of a power source. The resulting light fixture can further include an in-line adapter having at least one light fixture component, a third coupling feature, and a fourth coupling feature, where the third coupling feature is detachably coupled to the first coupling feature of the base light fixture, where the fourth coupling feature is configured to detachably couple to the second coupling feature of the power source, and where the at least one light fixture component provides a capability absent in the base light fixture.

An adaptor, a light source device using the adaptor, and a lighting apparatus using the adaptor are provided. The adaptor includes a main body, a protruding part, and an operating component. The main body includes: a power supply mounting part, a light source mounting part, and a conducting circuit extending from the power supply mounting part to the light source mounting part; the protruding part is operatively movable to a blocking position for blocking the power supply mounting part from being engaged with the power supply module, and a releasing position for releasing the power supply mounting part to be engaged with the power supply module. The operating component is operatively movable on the main body to an on-position and an off-position.

A double-ended socket system for safely and easily seating a double-ended lamp is disclosed. The system has two socket assemblies spaced a distance corresponding to the length of a double-ended lamp. Each socket assembly has a housing with a recess that houses a cylindrical socket for receiving a lamp end that rotates between a disengaged orientation and an engaged orientation. The housing has an attached electrical connector connected to a power source. The socket has another attached electrical connector that contacts the electrical connector of the housing only when the socket is rotated to the engaged orientation, thus eliminating the electrical shock hazard of conventional double-ended socket systems. The lamp may be removed only while in the disengaged orientation. A user may install a double-ended lamp into the socket system by use of only one hand. A method of use of a double-ended socket system is also disclosed.

An elongate tubular lighting assembly having a body with a length between spaced first and second ends. The tubular lighting assembly has a source of illumination and first and second connectors respectively at the first and second body ends. The first connector has cooperating first and second parts having first and second surfaces. The first and second connector parts are configured so that the first and second surfaces are placed in confronting relationship to prevent separation of the first and second connector parts with the body in an operative state as an incident of the first connector part moving relative to the second connector part from a position fully separated from the second connector part in a substantially straight path that is transverse to the length of the body into an engaged position.
