I’ve had the time of my liiiight! (sorry, too punny)
Cool!
This designer – Jasper Hou – has come up with this super cool design for LED-based lights: You wind the base part of the light which works like clockwork. As it unwinds, energy is released that is used to power the internal LEDs. How cool is that?
The lights are apparently only as bright as candles, but are much more eco-friendly than their candle counterparts as candles are made from processed petroleum products and release carbon dioxide when burnt.
And, unlike with candles, it’s pretty unlikely that you’ll catch your curtains on fire with one of these babies. Not that I know from experience… terrible, smelly, smoke-filled experience…

Hey those are pretty cool. So what are those? Blue, Yellow, White, Red, and Green?
Yep! I don’t know if they’re on the market yet, I don’t think so. But I’m sure they’re close. I think they’ll sell like hotcakes. I’d love one myself.
