Interesting. I wonder how well they work? Pretty cool in any case. Even if they perform like normal LED's I'd probably still buy them just to say I have them. lol
I wonder what its boiling point is?
People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.
$35? Yikes! A 25W incandescent it's the brightest bulb, I know most are 45-60 in my house. Which have all been replaced with CF bulbs anyway.
Bring the price down to like $10 and I can see this taking off alot more.

I'd take one of these over CF if they had some brighter ones; the fluorescent bulbs fade stuff, which I don't like.
what i wonder is how does the heat get out? if through the glass there is no point in the water, assuming its that.

LED's don't typically generate heat.. though at 4w I would imagine there has to be some heat.
From what the article said the liquid is more the keep the other components(resistors and transformer) cool not the led itself. It's designed to be replace incandescents or cfl's and not be a directional light source.

As soon as they hit 60w, they're on the shopping list.
