Sort of makes me wonder what the normal operating temperature of the LED bulb is, and what kinds of temperatures the liquid-cooled one is likely to get to after 4-5 hours of being on.

Also, lifespan, power usage, all the normal stuff. And price, of course!



Here's some info that might help:

* Lasts 35,000 hours or 35x longer than incandescent bulbs
* Fully Dimmable
* Contains No Mercury or Hazardous Substances
* Approved for Outdoor and Indoor Use
* No Flickering, No Headaches
* Runs Cools
* 2 Year Warranty & 30 Day Money Back Guarantee

Product Description

The Eternaleds HydraLux-4 LED Bulb is the first LED bulb in the world to use liquid-cooling technology to give true 360 degree light like a regular light bulb! It uses 4W to put out as much light as a 25W standard "A-Shape" incandescent bulb while lasting 35x longer. It's a drop-in replacement that can instantly replace any indoor bulb that uses a standard E27 medium base socket.



This LED bulb is great for applications such as: desk lamps, sconces or anywhere you'd use a 25W incandescent bulb. Not to worry, if you drop/break it - the liquid inside is harmless paraffin oil that has been tested and certified safe to UL and ROHS standards.

Pricing etc:

^ obviously you've never been at sea for 3 months straight on a US Navy destroyer. Add gravity, 400 men, some bilge gray paint, then take away the nice view and replace it with 360 degrees of sky and sea. These are some pretty nice digs.


How about a submarine? Isn't that even worse?

It's just nice to see people fight back for once. Pepper-spraying everyone in a 180-360 degree arc was a nice touch, and as a result, I don't really care about what might've happened before the video. I've seen and heard enough of police brutality and abuse of power lately that I'm not inclined to give the police the benefit of the doubt. Americans need to fight back while they still can. To be honest, I thought most/all of them had lost the will.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Very cool. Count me in, we'll start a village.

The only thing missing is a light source. If there is land 360 degrees around the cylinder, we'll need a bar in the middle to radiate light.

Descent was the first game I ever bought. I remember seeing that it had true 360 degree range of motion, and I was floored by that.

"Come through Gazebo Shavings and Lawn Open 360 degrees, for your banking convenience.

They marched around Jericho 13 times, once every day for 6 days, then 7 times on the seventh day.

Anyway, walking around your living room 6 times is still 6 x 360 degrees. *Slight* leap of imagination there to get from degrees to miles.

"Skip-It is a children's toy invented by Victor Petrusek and manufactured by Tiger Electronics. During its initial release in the late-1980s, the Skip-It apparatus became a commercial success through its avid advertisements on daytime Nickelodeon broadcasting as well as other children's programming. The 'Skip-It' apparatus was designed to be affixed to the child's ankle via a small plastic hoop and spun around in a 360 degree rotation while continuously skipped by the user.

During a second production occurring in the early-1990s, the toy was manufactured with a counter on the Skip-It ball; designed to make the number of skips impeccably accurate.

Some Skip-It's have colorful glitter filled and covered plastic decorations that can be slid on and of the make colorful paterns.

There was a model which may have been called skiparoo or skip-a-roo that is from the 60's that was all plastic and had a red bell-shaped end.

There was also a model called the "lemon twist" which was made in the seventies. It was black PVC piping and had a big lemon at the end. It had little rocks inside that made noise as you twisted.

Marshall Swails of Irmo, SC won the 1995 World Skip-It Open at the 1995 Toy Congress in Wolfsburg, Germany. He skipped 300,546 times on his custom glitter filled Skip-It. What was remarkable about this achievement was that Swails was the only sponsored entrat, endorsing both Keds and BIKE. He worse simple white, canvas Keds and a pair of skin tight BIKE bicycle shorts with his name on the side. He did not wear a shirt." -[wikip.]

Great to see it improving.

some older experiments can be found.

FPS isn't the sort of game I'd see it as being ideal for. I'd love something like this for Flight Simulator, just build a cockpit in the middle and you're good to go. It wouldn't need to be much either, once you have the monitor set up working, it would cost less than a grand to get an acceptable cockpit - which has got to be chicken feed compared to the cost of this! (The cost of a system to run FSX at that resolution is terrifying enough!)

I think this is really best for games that separate view angle from main body angle (by Body angle, I mean what the player controls, be it a human body or an aircraft, tank, mech-warrior or whatever). Quake does not, were you look, your whole body faces, but in FSX, the pilot's head can be turned separately from the plane's direction so the cockpit can be stationary inside the monitor loop and to look out the left cockpit window, you look to your left and see the in-game cockpit trimmings and view outside. There are quite a few games which have this separation of view angle and movement angle, all realistic flight sims, detailed racing games, Armoured Assault is a shooter but it has this separation and it would be ideal. I guess it's useful in the same games as TrackIR is, although unlike TrackIR, this probably wouldn't suck. By keeping the body controls as they are (joystick or yoke for FSX) and virtually removing all head movement controls, you'll have a much more immersive game. In flight sims you can always get disoriented when screwing with the view angle controls, with this you have the small factor of your neck being twisted to keep your brain under control.

Awesome stuff, bad choice of software to show it off. Give me Flight Simulator X on this for a reasonable price and I'll bite. It wouldn't even need to be 360 degrees, about 240 would be enough as behind, you only see the back of the cockpit or the passenger area.

I love mine. I have a black leather one and I keep a ton of stuff in it. You just never know when you might need something! Actually, my first fanny pack was a surplus Army grenade pouch that I had over 25 years ago. That baby could carry all kinds of stuff! I hate the term fanny pack since I move it 360 degrees around my body while I wear it, but I won't quibble and I refuse to submit to fashion over function!

Project the porn onto the inside of the bubble in 360 degree sense-o-round and you got something there.
