Default New plasma light bulb!

This could be the future of lighting, screw LED's. These get 140 lumens per watt!

these might really have some potential. if they're made to replace the bulbs in street lamps and most of us use the same bulbs currently in street lamps.....

not to mention they claim they have the same spectrum as the sun while using less energy and less heat.

almost sounds too good to be true for a grow light.

what I wanna know is, how long do they last? it said no electrical current hits the bulb, only heat, but heat breaks things down fast.

they mention something about a big portion of the energy being turned into light instead of heat

hey, with 140 lum/W it is about as efficient as an 400W HPS and these little suckers draw 250W still too - they will produce some good amount of heat as well!

i would think they're talking about color temp as in kelvin. notice how the guy has his hand on the lamp? at 6000 F i dont think youd be able to even stand near it.

(ok, maybe im just stoned)
