My new over the stove microwave only has only one light bulb. The light output is terrible! I want to redo it so it has two again. Had I known this I would have saved the sockets from my old over the stove microwave. Anyone have an old over the stove microwave with 2 intermediate bulb holders in it? They need to have some type of steel bracket on them. If not I'll buy 2 off ebay.  I have room to mount two.

Most older over the stove microwaves seemed to have two bulbs. Seems most new ones only have one now. Mine has a high and low light output switch. Hopefully it holds up with two bulbs.  I (like many) use it as a night light. Hopefully I can use the low setting as the night light.

Someone needs to make a conversion kit and make an multi LED flat plate light one can put in instead of these 40 watt hi intensity incandescent bulbs. Would sell well I bet.

We get plenty of microwave ovens at work, I can pull the sockets next time I see a built it model.

I should be able to use those. Put them on or near your desk and I'll pick them up someday. I have to drop off that asphalt sealer soon.
