A socket for a lighting assembly includes a socket body defining an enclosure such that a lamp with a pin contact can extend into the enclosure. Electrical connectors extend away from the enclosure in a second direction. The body includes a wall extending away from the enclosure past the electrical connectors and is spaced from the connectors to allow access to the connectors, and a further wall between the electrical connectors. The further wall can provide an insulating barrier between the connectors. The connectors may be cylindrical. The wall extending away from the enclosure may include a cap covering the wall, and one or more conductors can pass underneath the cap to connect to the electrical connectors for powering the lamp.

The bag holder assembly of claim 6, wherein said holder is mounted on top of the rim of a container. 8. The bag holder assembly of claim 6, wherein said holder is mounted on a vertical surface. 9. A self-closing bag holder, comprising: a first resilient member having long and short segments; a second resilient member having long and short segments; a first rocker joining said long and short segments of said first resilient member and forming a predetermined angle between said segments; a second rocker joining said long and short segment of said second resilient member and forming a predetermined angle between said segments; wherein said first and second rockers are coupled at a common pivot point; wherein said short segments of said first and second members are coupled together and bowed outwardly away from each other, defining a handle; wherein said long segments of said first and second members are releasably coupled together; wherein said long segments of said first and second members are adapted to be extendable outwardly to an open position from each other upon squeezing of said handle, and retractable inwardly to a closed position upon release of said handle. 10. The bag holder of claim 9, wherein said short segments are coupled by a hinge. 11. The bag holder of claim 9, wherein said long segments of said first and second members are releasably coupled by a hinge, said hinge comprising ear and tab portion, said ear portion being integrally formed on said long segment of said first member and said tab portion being integrally formed on said long segment of said second member. 12. The bag holder of claim 9, further comprising: locking means to releasably engage the rim of a bag to said members. 13. The bag holder of claim 9, wherein said first and second rockers are pivotally engaged with a hinge. 14. The bag holder of claim 9, further comprising a bag having a rim supported by said long segments of said first and second members. 15. A self-closing bag holder, comprising: a first elongated resilient member having a long segment having two ends, a short segment, and a first rocker, said first rocker adapted to join said long and short segments of said first member to define a substantially fixed angle between 90 and 180 degrees; a second elongated resilient member having a long segment having two ends, a short segment and a second rocker, said second rocker adapted to join said long and short segments of said second member to define a substantially fixed angle between 90 and 180 degrees; means for pivotally engaging said first and second rockers; means for joining the ends of said short segments; wherein the joined short segments are bowed away from each other, wherein the joined long segments are bowed away from each other upon compression of said short segments by a user and wherein the joined long segments are retracted toward each other upon release of said short segments by the user. 16. The self-closing bag holder of claim 15, wherein the other ends of said long segments are joined together by a releasable hinge. 17. The self-closing bag holder of claim 15, further comprising: means for latching said long segments together when they are closed. 18. The self-closing bag holder of claim 17, further comprising: means for keeping the bag on said long segments from sliding. 19. The self-closing bag holder of claim 18, wherein said means for joining the ends of said short segments is a thin connector integrally formed with said short segments. 20.
