Reinvented Bulb isn't a Bulb: It's an LED Light Source [LEDs]
Gizmodo —
... inside, and they emit a harsh light and can't be dimmed. LEDs are more efficient, potentially longer lasting, are dimmable and need less components. Frog has decided that to get consumers to adopt LEDs, and for ease of use, it's simplest to package them in a traditional glass enclosure, complete with screw-fit contacts. It's a design I've secretly thought about for ages: making it into a real product has just one difficulty... bright enough, white enough, long-lasting diffuse LEDs. [Yanko Design] ...

Check out the gallery below to see Frog’s other two variants in its frogware series, all scattering the LED light in different ways for your viewing pleasure.

The End of Light Bulb

... I think this is the end of light bulb. Frog Design has designed the eco-friendly LED bulb that requires less electricity. The LED bulb works like the ordinary light bulb, which uses the same aluminum socket and the same warm color. The only difference is that the LEDs require less energy and feature a life span of 30+ years. [Yanko] ...

Ten Creative Re-Invention Of The Light Bulb
Yanko Design —
History suggests that over twenty inventors worked toward the creation and design of the light bulb. Of these, Thomas Edison’s version was the most efficient. We are not here to dispute any claims but to appreciate the various forms and representations it has taken. Coming to the present times (and a bit into the future), let’s look at ten creative re-inventions of this light source.
