Even though many decades passed with the standard incandescent light bulb remaining largely unchanged, science in this past decade as finally set its sites on one of the world’s most commonly used gadgets. A company called Eternaleds has launched a new liquid cooled LED lightbulb given the name “Hydrolux”. The cooling of the internals comes by way of paraffin oil. Don’t worry about toxicity as the oil is completely safe and has been deemed so by UL and ROHS standard. Currently the bulb only comes in two colors, “warm white” and “daylight” and one wattage, 4W. However, the company says that 8W, 12W, and 16W versions of the Hydrolux are on track for release by the end of the year. Who’s ready for some tree smilin’ fun?!
