i want to be able to make a wine bottle lamp with Christmas lights connected any way to a light socket to use a low watt mercury cfl.i was thinking a 120V / 60Hz / 300mA / 20 W bulb or lower.
the Christmas lights are rated 120v / .4 amps / 48 watts with each bulb rated for 2.5v and a 5 amp 125v fuse. this way i can plug one plug into an outlet and be able to switch on/ off the lamp light. i was thinking of leaving the Christmas lights in series but attaching the lamp socket in parallel but idk.
any thoughts?
