An accidental discovery announced this week has taken LED lighting to a new level, suggesting it could soon offer a cheaper, longer-lasting alternative to the traditional light bulb. The miniature breakthrough adds to a growing trend that is likely to eventually make Thomas Edison's bright invention obsolete.
Now I know this doesnt sound like much, but until recently LED's couldn't emit a white light. Now knowing that a LED runs for longer and brighter than a regular 60 watt lightbulb and also uses less power, this is a great advancement in lowering costs to lighting your home.
Not only that but because it can be developed as a reactive paint, just think of walking into your bathroom, and instead of flipping a light switch to turn on a little dim light above the sink, you could flip a switch and the entire cieling would glow a soft white with a gentle blue hue, AND COST LESS THAN A LIGHTBULB TO POWER!!! =D Read this article here and think about the possibilities.
