Why would you ever want to use a bulb with a lock out base in the first place? What's the point of it?
By Jacob from Pegasus Lighting on January 24, 2013
Answer:
Steve,
Here's a specific example where a lockout base could be useful. An apartment complex property manager might install the lockout base so that residents cannot switch back to traditional incandescent light bulbs. This allows the property manager to keep power bills/maintenance costs low.
You do NOT have to install the plastic lockout insert if you don't want to use this feature.
Hope this helps.
