    Hi,

    Total DIY noob here, so apologies in advance regarding the non-electrical lingo used in this thread !!

    Firstly, take a look at the attached……

    I have an e27 Ikea wifi light bulb fitted to this light fixture, via a bayonet adaptor.

    Problem is, with the bayonet adaptor attached, the glass “cover” won’t fit.

    Now I’m thinking I should replace the bayonet light fixture with an E27 type – is that correct or what would you do ??

    2 choices either change the fitting or replace lamp with bayonet type.
