    Why use an adapter at all?
    G9 lamps are not very good anyway.
    They always seem to fail.

    The answer is in the question!

    I want a Halogen bulb in an E27 fitting. I would like the option to try different wattages/covers. Might even try LED.

    .......I can also buy G9's by the gross on EBay. :)

    Bell lighting in the uk make a similar system, based on g9 and with various differant shades to replicate standard bulbs.
    we got them in for a guy but they were the r95 globe type.
    it seems like a good system to replace lights that might have gone out of production like the r95 globe.

    B&M = Bricks and mortar.

    I appreciate the advice regarding the G9's but I was looking for information regarding shops where the kit is available ( preferably at a reasonable price ).
