LED (light emitting diode) technology is extremely promising in the drive to reduce energy usage and lower greenhouse gases. But, so far, not everyone likes its bright white light. A new design combines a white light with a cool blue "healing" light. (Photo by Sanyo)Erik Palm at CNET News.com Crave reports:
"Sanyo is turning to LED light technology, a hot new area for experimentation, to squeeze three uses out of a single lamp. The company's new Eneloop Lamp is a desk light that can also work as an emergency flashlight and even send some healing energy your way--or so the company says. Operating on rechargable AA "eneloop" batteries, Sanyo's new Eneloop Lamp based on high-luminance LED technology can be situated anywhere in the room since no cords constrain the placement. It also uses a contactless charging system and has no metallic contact on the product body interrupting the design. The batteries are recharged by putting the lamp unit on the charging stand.
In low-white-light mode, one 12-hour charge lasts an impressive 45 hours, but on high output it only lasts 3 hours. The Eneloop Lamp also features a blue lamp 'Healing Light' mode that according to Sanyo 'creates a healing ambience.'" See full article.
