Night Vision LED Book Light

Introducing a LightWedge Night Vision LED Book Light, which is an innovative customized design of LightWedge Original Booklights specially made for sailors, astronomers and pilots to provide an easier reading experience without waking others that may be within eyesight of you.

The red LED light illuminates the pages uniformly and helps in reading charts and maps in total darkness. In fact this can be used by geeky bookworms too who love to read in the night. The red light is extremely soothing for the eyes and the light doesn’t really spread beyond the page and hurt the eyes of the reader or disturb other people around.

The LightWedge LED booklight are the true reading lights and are more useful than the usual table lamps. They are portable, battery operated and when placed on the pages they just uniformly illuminate the prints and make night reading a true pleasurable experience. Each is only $45.89, with different models and colors available.

This Night Vision innovation will be useful for sailors, astronomers and pilots who need to consult charts and maps while navigating in the dark. Red light doesn’t really illuminate the darkness around like the white light. It can be used along with Night Vision Goggles with which one can see far in to darkness.

One can really hide in the dark and read comfortably in night vision lights. And if one wants to read something on the sly no need to hide under the bed or blankets with torch lights or table lamps, use LightWedge Night Vision LED Bookcase instead!

Do You Want to Make Your Bath Time More Fun?

We have always marveled at the simplicity and the beauty of the new shower head, which uses LED lights to give it an extra charm and makes the cleaning up time more colorful and fun, especially great for kids.

I haven’t really seen anything like this, and I think it is quite amazing. Using this shower, bath time will never be dull again, whether you are 3 years old, or you are 80. There are four different colors that appear on the shower, illuminating the water.

These lights are not just really cool to look at, but also have a certain level of practicality associated with them. The color of the LED light changes with temperature, and so if you have really hot water coming out of the shower, the lights glow red,and the color automatically changes with any fluctuations in temperature, going through yellow and blue and finally green for really cold water. This really helps because you will no longer have to test the water temperature before you step into the shower, and you can adjust the water accordingly until you reach the color that you want to.

The best part is you don’t need any additional batteries to operate the lights, they are powered by the water pressure, and this makes it an eco-friendly option. The shower head is also just the right size, very easy to install (just unscrew your old shower head and replace it with this one) and very sturdy, having been made with ABS plastic. They fit on to the standard shower pipe size, and so they are suitable for almost every bathroom.

This is most definitely the perfect accessory to make bath time more romantic, or even to entice your kids into showering. It is said that its price is around $67, so I think it isn’t even too expensive to consider, right?

How to Make an Old House into a Modern

This artical shows you how to push a 1920s house into a modern, low-carbon age. The last few touches – appliances and rare light bulbs.

After spending the past year reducing the home’s heating bills by adding stacks of insulation, the owner has now turned her attention to slashing her electricity needs. She buy electricity from Good Energy which is a 100% renewable electricity supplier, but she would like to reduce our dependence on it, as all electricity is expensive – green or not. She monitor her energy usage with weekly measurements taken directly from both the gas and electricity utility and currently the house consumes 8kWh of electricity every day.

As part of her drive to save eneergy, She has reviewed the efficiency of all of her electrical appliances. Fridge freezers are significant consumers of electricity in the average house because they are switched on 365 days a year. As she was old, she recently replaced it with an A-rated one to minimise energy usage. Their television is an old-fashioned boxy cathrode ray tube, which is quite energy-hungry, consuming 300 watts per hour when on. The plan – when she has the money – is to change it over to a LCD type. They’ll plan their purchase with a great site called Sust-It which you can use to determine the energy cost per year of new tellies and other products.

What else? Well, she changed most of our conventional light bulbs to energy-savers several years ago. That was easy with standard bulbs, so now she is replacing the more obscure ones.

The garage security floodlight was rated at an energy-guzzling 500 watts – the equivalent of around 50 standard energy-saving bulbs. Although it produced an instant bright light , it was repeatedly set off by animals wandering into the garden at night. So she found a low-energy bulb from B&Q which, although less than half as bright, consumes just 18 watts and reaches full brightness within a few seconds. B&Q now sells a better version using an incandescent bulb for instant bright white light, but after a few seconds the more efficient but slower compact fluorescent bulb takes over.

Continuing outside, our garden lights used to consume only 6 watts each, but having eight of them she was determined to replace them with a more efficient option. Compact fluorescent bulbs don’t exist for such a small wattage so an LED light was the obvious choice. She has now replaced each of them with a very bright 1 watt LED version which nicely lights up the path to the house. A timer ensures the overall energy consumption is minimised.

She has used LED technology inside too. Earlier in the year she bought several Deltech LED bulbs from ebulbshop.com and was very impressed with its brightness and warm-white colour. It matches the incandescent GU10 bulbs (one of the most common spotlight-style fittings) very well and most importantly it has the same physical size, so it fits in her bathroom ceiling’s recessed bulb-holders. These GU10 LED bulbs consume just 5 watts each but come close to the light output from their 50 watt incandescent equivalents. They won’t pay for themselves for more than 10 years because they’re so expensive up-front, so I justify the LEDs on the grounds that their carbon payback is immediate.
