... is, ha többé nem hívhatjuk a villanykörtét villanykörtének, akkoris nagyon tetszik annak újragondolása.
Tervezője a koreai Joonhuyn Kim. A harmadakkora méret nem csak a csomagolás, de a szállítás költségeit is csökkenti, ezenkívül tárolását is könnyebbé teszi, nem is beszélve arról, hogy eltörni sem annyira egyszerű.
A körte új elnevezésére az ötleteket az aannyiötletemvan@ztsemtudomhovaküldj.em címre várjuk!

Flat Bulb

... Designed by Joonhuyn Kim, the Flat Bulb "take up less space and make it easier (and cheaper) to store and transport." No word yet on if this concept will go into production. Click here for first picture in gallery.

Flat Light Bulbs Are The Future
OhGizmo! —
... bulbs (like other flat things) are much easier and cheaper to store and transport. And the especially nice thing about flat light bulbs is that they don’t hurl themselves off of high places to their doom. I’m sure they’d be significantly more expensive than normal “chubby” incandescents if they ever went into production, but with the increasing prevalence of efficient and long lasting CFLs and LEDs, that may not get a chance to happen.
