Plasma lights

by Gene on Jun. 25th, 2008

A California company has developed a new type of light bulb, the size of a breath mint, that pumps out as much light as a street lamp. The bulb is twice as efficient as an LED, and 10 times as efficient as an incandescent light. It also produces a full spectrum of light frequencies, illuminating objects in true color.
