My previous house had those old-style ceramic, single-bulb ceiling light fixtures in the basement. There were three of them in about a 1000 ft² area, and two of them could only be turned on with those pull-chains. If I had seen these Motion Activated Garage Lights while I lived there, I could have converted that …

You won’t be clipping this Book Light to the top of your hardcover book, but it will delight the book lover or the painfully-obvious pun-lover! When turned off, it folds down to look like a black journal. When you open the book, the “pages” fan open and the lights come on to provide accent lighting. …

The SIXDEFLY LED bulb screws into any E26 fixture (this is the normal size used in most US fixtures), and it uses 4W of electricity to produce 300 lumens of 1900-2200K light.

“Oh cool” was my son’s reaction when he saw this… thing. What is this thing? It’s called the Pod Light from Mychanic, a unique take on the work light that goes almost anywhere.
Adding additional light to a place with no electrical outlets can be a challenge when you don’t want to pay an electrician. Stick up lights are one solution, but they usually run on batteries and require the flip of a switch to turn on the light. The Fredorch UFO 360° Rotating LED wall light looks …
I’ve got quite a few flashlights, but I don’t really have a portable “floodlight” when I need to light up a large area. This time I got to try out something different. It’s not quite a flashlight, and it’s not really a camping lantern. It’s the Loftek 15W Portable Floodlight.
If you haven’t replaced all the incandescent light bulbs in your home for LED bulbs yet, what are you waiting for? LED bulbs use less energy which means you’ll see a lower electric bill, they last longer than traditional bulbs and they are better for the environment. If those aren’t good enough reasons for you …

The box is titled “START HERE ROMANTIC LIFE”. Romance in a box? It it really that simple? Inside the box is a nifty little Bluetooth speaker with a very nice dimmable, changeable, LED light.
