I like the metal clamps because they can be moved so much easier and can take a normal bulb and up to 100W also. Take care with them though because a lot do have a Watt limit.

Amazon do some good ones for around £15.00. I have ceramic screw in ones also but was caught out when first buying with the bracket not being included. The brackets hang well screwed in to solid pieces of wood but if you have a reflector that type of bracket cant be used, so I guess they free hang with a safety clip.

My reflectors , brackets are very old so cant see a make on them sorry. Some are quite flat and others are very domed. The domed ones are apparently better as they arc the heat towards the ground better making a more concentrated heat. Sorry I am not sure that's helped at all ! hopefully some one useful will come on !! CB
