I remember as a kid being marveled by the new LED bulbs that have a dome shape and could throw light like a flashlight.
“These things are going to be the future of lights” I thought, and hoarded all the removed little lights from various electric things. I made my own lighting devices with them.
My how far we’ve come!
Think of the electricity and maintenance we’ve saved alone. There’s not a single filament bulb in my house, but not to save money. More light! My eyes don’t work in the dark! The headlights I wear in the beginning and end of my day last forever now. The Olight I use for biking is brighter than any mag light was.
The very same Light hangs above my loading bench too. Light to spare! I almost feel blind leaving the room. (Although mine came from Menards, I’m sure it was the same mega-factory.)
No more will stray primers hide from searching eyes! Every kernel will be accounted for. Every number read will be exact. No more fumbling in dark corners.
The down side is, you may need to tidy up a bit more. Now that I can see, I vacuum more!
And today’s new high powered chipped LED lights even blink to let you know to change them!
Soon, they won’t wear out and will be embedded from the surface into the walls and ceilings architecturally.
Everything will power from the switch, through gold wires. No, Nano-Plasma ray energy.
