Dubious lamp adapters

Put anything here that's badly designed/made, failed, catastrophically exploded or just an epic fail in a general sort of way.

Lol yeah I've seen some of them on eBay but thought that maybe the GU10 -MR16 ones may have some sort of resistor or capacitor to drop voltage at first but yeah they should be banned. eBay is becoming terrible for the amount of shite people sell, fake goods and stuff not listed correctly. You can't really trust it no more TBH
