Who says crops can only be planted on vast farms in the Midwest. It is possible to grow crops in isolated city warehouses without sunlight and soil says LEDinside. By implementing LED artificial light source, this innovative idea of urban farming has been developed and quietly making progresses over the past decades.

If you prefer the old style incandescent light bulbs and were worried about a looming phase out, don't worry, that warm yellow glow isn't going anywhere, just yet. The Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) was signed into law by President George W. Bush in 2007, and it in part, called for the phase out of 40-, 60-, and 100-watt incandescent bulbs.

Compared to conventional incandescent bulbs LEDs have many advantages. They are economical to use energy as compared to prior generations of electric light sources - arc, filament and gas discharge. For an optimal power supply circuit design and application of high-quality components average lifetime of LED lighting systems can be increased to 100 thousand hours, which is 50-200 times more massive than incandescent bulbs and 4-16 times greater than that of most fluorescent lamps.

First the town of Culpeper switched to LED (light-emitting diode) technology for traffic signals. Now the town is experimenting with LED streetlights, which last longer, burn brighter and are extremely energy efficient.

A chocolate bunny is placed under a 65W incandescent light and a 12W Cree LRP-38 LED lights. About 90 minutes later, the chocolate bunny under the incandescent light melts since about 90 percent of energy from them is emitted as heat. Energy efficient LED lights
