Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Somewhat off topic but are there solar powered light bulbs that can be used at home? I was in a hotel once that said had solar powered light. It was very soft and ethereal. Thanks. blessings, Paresh http://home.earthlink.net/~sunmoonyoga/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Perhaps the hotel you referred to was using solar tubes. These are not a light bulb and involve no electricity. They use a tube that is lined with amazingly reflective material to bring light down from above the roof into the building. The bottom of the tube has a diffuser on it, and looks a lot like a ceiling light bulb fixture. The light is full spectrum, does not fade furniture, and the good brands cause neither heating nor heat loss. The downside is that they only work during daylight hours. Some brands also have a electric light bulb inside that is used during hours of darkness. Regards, Shivani If the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
