by Steffen B. Flag of Germany 1/30/2026 Halogen / LED Socket Adapter BA 15D / G4 Verified purchase Variant: 12601
A bit small
My sockets, the original ceiling lights from 2003, are slightly larger. The tabs on the adapter socket are a bit short, so they tend to slip out easily. This can be adjusted by bending them back into place. I then secured the sockets with a cable tie to prevent them from bending open.

Replacement for 15w classic light bulbs
Used with the appropriate adapter from SVB in the HR31 Mk1 ceiling lamp. Unfortunately, the light isn't always aimed perfectly downwards, but the diffuser of the lamp body compensates for this. The light color is pleasantly similar to an incandescent bulb.

Replacement for 10w halogen
I replaced a 10W halogen bulb. It works; brightness and light color are comparable.

It lasts very little

Okay. But which male connector fits? I can't find anything...
No problem attaching the hose, but which male fitting will work? I can't find anything... Thanks a lot if anyone has any ideas. SVB doesn't have a fitting that works. JM

SVB AAA Rating with Complaints
I bought the Tigres winch from Lofrans (24V 1500W) and had it shipped to Trinidad by SVB. Upon arrival, the outer packaging was already soaked with oil, and the winch was leaking oil inside the box. It wasn't damage in transit. SVB immediately sent a replacement winch via UPS Express. The leaking winch was picked up from my ship free of charge. Ten days later, everything was perfect. Many thanks to Mr. Dierks and the complaints team. Norbert K.

Tips for processing
Laying a few square meters is a project that shouldn't be underestimated. The process is complex if you want to do it properly. Cutouts are time-consuming.

1) Sharp utility knife blades are essential. Turpentine substitute helps with cleaning, but regularly snapping and replacing the blades is significantly better. A sharp blade glides almost effortlessly through the foam without tearing the aluminum surface.

2) The panels are much easier to work with when they are very cold.

3) Mark the cut, cut through the thick foam, then fold the panel so that the bitumen breaks. Trace the fold on the other side (with a marker) and reposition the utility knife there. This works very well, as you don't have to cut through the bitumen.

4) If you want to do it properly, you'll need quite a lot of aluminum tape. I used one roll for every 3 square meters. It's best to stick the tape on and only tear off the aluminum strip, leaving the white backing film intact. This eliminates the fiddly process of separating the tape from the backing film again.

5) Apply a strip of aluminum tape to the cut edges along the outer edges of each surface, then carefully fold it over and stick a second strip all the way around the surface, widening the narrow adhesive strip. That'll hold!
