Ming the Merciless



Instead of heat conducting metal fins that look like spacecraft from Flash Gordon, HydraLux LED bulbs engage a clear liquid coolant to prevent them from overheating. This form of heat control also provides 360° of small area illumination, which is great task lighting, especially if you are the prop guy in charge of gluing fishing line on miniature spacecraft for a 1930s science fiction serial whose primary special effect is a bunch of shots of steel bucket-like spacecraft flying from the left of the screen to the right of the screen. If you are that guy, then this bulb is awesome.

SO-LAR-POW-ER, Clap...Clap...Clap, Clap, Clap



Sports fans, "LET'S GET READY TO GENERATE!" The world's first 100% solar powered stadium has been built in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. It's purpose, the 2009 World Games. Those in attendance, especially fans in the upper deck, will be able to watch a bunch of sports not good enough for the Olympics on jumbotrons completely powered by solar energy. Game on!
