Being that i almost broke my aqualine bulbs ( a piece of ceramic broke off the end) i decided to share this little useful tip i discovered.
If you have to push really hard for your ends to go into your metal clamps, try sticking a tooth pick (3 mm diameter bamboo viarety at the dollar store) in the metal clamps before inserting the bulbs. Save you the trouble of pushing too hard and breaking your bulbs.
My maristar fixture was a pain to get in without the tooth picks holding the clamps open.
