  • 1.  Tech Question

    I inherited a number of PAR46 cans, but the lamp needs to have a post/prong plug-in foot (that I remember from WAY back). Anybody know of where I can find these relics?

    I am not familiar with a "post prong" type connector. Are you, perhaps, referring to a 2 Pin and Ground (2P&G)  or stage pin connector? https://www.google.com/search?q=stagepin+connector&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiVpbXa4urdAhUmxYMKHa_eBTsQ_AUIzAEoAQ&biw=1366&bih=662

    It sounds as though you are looking for the sockets for these fixtures they are still available, the post/Prong you are referring to there are a couple of types available. You should be able to get them through a Theatrical supply

    As Jerry says most Theatrical supply places should be able to get you either the lamps or the connector they plug into.  For Lamps Amazon has numerous vendors with them for around $18-20, Bulb America has MFL and NSP - $11-15, 1000bulbs.com has NSP at $11.30

    ​I bought some a couple years ago from Bulbman (bulbman.com) in Sacramento. They ship.
