There is this socket for a light bulb, and it says LED only.
Why is it like that?
Is it just for power limitation (not to exceed power,) because LEDs take less power, or is there another reason?

Best Answer
Yes it is a power limitation. Many light fixtures with just regular lamp sockets may have rating like 10W and it is quite clear that heat from regular incandescent bulbs would melt the material. It also might allow for cables with smaller wire diameter.
