Abstract
A light fixture having a bulb base connector limited to a DC supply with 10-30 volt DC power. The connector assembly utilizes threading, friction and/or detent connection for connecting a lightbulb assembly to the light fixture in vehicles. A dual threading system and a barrel connector are configured to connect the lightbulb to the light fixture and to supply power from the fixture to the light bulb. The system uses a unique bulb base and connector to adapt to preexisting fixtures.
