What Our Customers Say

“Bob at Light Source Central is our Go-To guy for the jelly-jar LED retrofits we frequently use. There other places that have lower wattage / lumens offerings that cost more. Also - they ship quick, never have we gone more than 3 days from our order to receiving product. Highly Recommend!”

-Bob S. - Charlotte, NC

“My 20 year old Hunter ceiling fan light stopped working and new bulb didn't fix it. The ballast is a TCP manufacture and they stopped making replacements 12 years ago. I searched all over and could not find any that would work in my fan. I ordered a replacement from Light Source Central. It would not work as it has a 2-pin electrical connection and mine is hard wired. I called Light Source Central and spoke to Bob Larkin. He immediately sent me a picture of an adapter that changes their ballast from 2-pin to hard wired. He sent one out that evening. When I received it I attached it to the ballast and shouted wow when the light went on. Real customer service, I can't thank Bob Larkin enough for a job well done!”
