Phillips Hue Lamp Holder?
I was thinking of buying the Phillips Hue WiFi lamp bulb set to go behind my TV to provide ambient lighting in whatever color I wish.
What I'm looking for is a lamp holder capable of taking three regular light bulbs ideally spaces about eight to twelve inches apart. I'm thinking like the lights you often see above the mirror in bathrooms, but one that would plug into the wall and sit on a table or desk (or in this case behind a TV).
Has anyone seen a simple three bulb light fixture like this? And if so could you link to where one could buy one?

If you are referring to something to be used for relief of eye strain,
I doubt that you should need three lights.
One should be more than sufficient, and, in fact,
some installations require a neutral gray filter to
cut down the brightness of the light behind the TV.
At your viewing position, the light should be about 10%
as bright as the average light level from the screen.
If you do have a reason for three lamps,
there is no reason why you couldn't use an ordinary
strip-style light fixture, mounted to a piece of wood
and equipped with a power cord.
