Some of our favorite crowd-funded lighting concepts (pictures)
Here's a handy list of Kickstarter and Indiegogo campaigns we want to see in the real world.
Alva
Each Alva is a custom LED lamp modeled after Thomas Edison's original creation.
Dodecado
Dodecado is a fun, interactive LED light fixture that you can mold to suit you mood.
Forever LED Light
Forever LED Light's line of bulbs have a lifetime guarantee. Apparently, that's a first.
Heat Pipe Lamp
The Heat Pipe Lamp claims to disperse 330 degrees of light compared with other LEDs' paltry 140-160 degrees.
Ilumi
Ilumi is a neat lighting concept that sounds akin to the Philips Hue. But can it compete?
LIFX
LIFX is a true Kickstarter success story. It far exceeded its $100,000 funding goal and has begun shipping its connected bulbs all over the world.
Lightree
Lightree is a cute lamp concept made of LEDs and eco-friendly materials. And you can adjust the colors to suit your changing moods.
NanoLight
The NanoLight uses 12 watts of electricity and yields 1,600 lumens. That's powerful for sure, but is it the "most energy efficient LED bulb on the planet" as its creators claim?
The Question Block Lamp
Does The Question Block Lamp look familiar? That's because it comes straight from your childhood memories of 8-bit gaming.
Ube WiFi Connected Smart Light Dimmer
The Ube WiFi Connected Smart Light Dimmer can be controlled remotely using the Ube app. It reminds us of the Belkin WeMo Light Switch (with the added bonus of a dimmer).
ZG-1: LED lighting system
Who said the light emitter and light diffuser have to be joined at the hip? The ZG-1 bulb separates the two and turns the light bulb into its own nifty light fixture.
