I use a $2 ceramic socket wired to a 99 cent extension cold. Then I buy the most powerful spiral CFL that I can find. The 150 "watt equivalent" in cool white is a good choice, for about $8. Any spiral cfl will work. Cool white is the best spectrum.

Another choice is an old/cheap desk lamp, which gives you a socket and plug already wired for you.
