If the title is something you hear often, you need new friends. If you kinda like those guys anyway… then we’ve found something fun for you. The Plumen CFL Lightbulb (Coming to the US Soon). Calling themselves the world’s first designer low energy light bulb, this interesting little illuminator will keep your room comfortably lit-up in style. Considering it’s £20 (that’s pounds) in Europe, I can’t imagine that this will be on the more affordable side… but did you see these things? they’re pretty bad-ass… well, as bad-ass as a light-bulb can be that is.
