A better choice to Light the way

How much money have you spent in light bulbs?

How many light bulbs have you changed in your life?




Hundreds? How many watts did you typically use? 60W 90W? 120W?



Meet the bulb that uses 6 Watts of energy to produce the same amount of light as a traditional 60 Watt bulb!!
Not only does it use significantly less energy, it also fits standard sized light fixtures, can be dimmed, keeps bulb temperature low, and is made of recyclable materials.

This LED bulb is the most environmentally safe option; using no lead, mercury,or toxic chemicals found in CFL's, and lasts up to 6 times LONGER than CFL's.



The Lemnis Lighting company states: if every American household switched just one traditional 60W light bulb to a Pharox light, $1.4 Billion in electricity costs and 9 billion kilowatt hours would be saved annually. This would equate to a carbon emissions reduction of 5.2 billion kg annually.


That is staggering! Imagine if all NEW construction used only LED bulbs and Solatube lighting. The cost of energy would be instantly reduced and people will get a lot more performance out of solar and wind generation! Help light the way!

I am working on a dream to build sustainable communities in my home town area and elsewhere. I have designed and drawn up several of these. I will follow these adventures in research through the blog and hopefully meet up with like-minded individuals along the way.
