NanoLight LED Light Bulb

A team of engineers have designed the NanoLight, which produces the same amount of light that a conventional 100W incandescent does while consuming just 12W of power. The highly affordable LED light bulb promises a lifespan of about 30,000 hours and its unique and somewhat unconventional design means that it doesn’t waste much energy as heat and also evenly distributes light in all directions. The team states that they built the LED light bulb from the ground up and didn’t make use of any heat sink, which is commonly found in most LED light bulbs. T...
