24 Jan 10 Ridiculous Light Bulbs You Have to See to Believe
Genius is subjective, but there is no doubt that these are some of the borderline craziest, most imaginative lights we’ve ever seen. In fact, we might be purchasing a few to spice up our office. We won’t be surprised if you do too! We spent a bit of time pondering just how some of these lights were devised. Here’s what we came up with. Let us know if you can do better!
Lamp/Lamp
This little gem is sure to have passers by doing a double-take. We think that it was inspired by an affinity for magic, but it might just be this:
Want one? We do, and this is where you can get it.
Credit Card Lightbulb
Do you hate those little flashlights that weigh down your keychain? You know, the ones that you have to hold down the tiny button on to keep the light going. We hate them too. That’s part of the reason we love this little bright idea.
Cheap, practical and pretty cool all at once. Get one at ThinkGeek now.
Tetris LED Lamp
We admit it. When Tetris first came out, we were addicts. Now that we’re a bona fide success, we can indulge our childhood cravings. And who wouldn’t crave this.

What more needs to be said? This is a game changer.
Insight Lamp
What if we told you we found a really brainy compact fluorescent light bulb? Seriously. This bulb is one of the brightest things we’ve seen in a while. So
It’s just too bad we couldn’t find a place to buy one!
Melting LED
What happens when you walk into your office and see this?
First thing that comes to mind?
Well, if you didn’t buy one of these bulbs and still had a molten pool on your desk, call the experts at GENTEC’s Manteca office. You’ll definitely need a pro!
Lumio
Are you a big reader? Do you find books enlightening? We bet you’ve never seen a book that delivers like this one. The Lumio is best described as
