New Lighting Technology‏ with Finally Acandescent Light Bulbs

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

It is really great that everyone is trying to save energy these days by using energy saving LED and CFL light bulbs. However, have you ever noticed that they emit cold, one-directional light?

If you miss the glow of incandescent lights but don't want to waste the energy, then let me introduce you to a great alternative, Finally™, the first and only light bulb to use Acandescent™ technology. It is also the first light bulb to truly replicate the look, reassuring warmth and omnidirectional light of the incandescent light bulbs you love.

The Finally Light Bulb Company has created Acandescence™, an innovative lighting technology for everyday home use, which reliably recreates the same light as an incandescent without the energy waste or excessive cost. The light it produces is both eco and consumer-friendly, easy on the wallet and comfortable on the eyes. With roots in induction technology, Acandescence™ uses a copper coil – not a tungsten filament or an electrode – to generate light.

Additional attributes include:

· Made in the recognizable and attractive Edison light bulb shape

· Reproduces the reassuring warm, high-quality and omnidirectional light of the beloved incandescent bulbs

· Unvarying light from bulb to bulb or brand to brand, like LEDs or CFLs, because only Finally™ bulbs use Acandescence™

· Ideal for indoor and outdoor use, Finally™ bulbs fit everywhere and work in any fixture

They offer two great options: 60 and 100 watt bulbs!

Finally’s Acandescent™ 60W A19 is the first energy-efficient light bulb to truly replicate the warm and omnidirectional look and glow of an incandescent.

A high-tech speaker system with almost zero installation hassle is the perfect combination to make any Dad’s Father’s Day. However, hiding that high-tech speaker inside of a lightbulb makes this tiny tech not only exciting to play with but visually appealing too.

Right now, Bluetooth speakers are the gift to give and what better way to use one than in a light bulb!!

Pulse by Sengled is a smart bulb that combines the energy efficiency of a dimmable LED light with the high-quality audio of a JBL Bluetooth speaker to provide you a premier home entertainment experience that you can easily control.

Each intelligent bulb has a JBL multi-channel stereo wireless speaker hidden within. You can simply screw the bulb into your existing lamp socket and pair with your Sengled Pulse Master bulb; download and install the app onto your smart devices. Instantly stream music and regulate the lighting. Isn’t that music to your ears? The intuitive iOS app offers seamless control of both light and sound while listening to your favorite streamed music or media, offering you the ability to customize your light and music to suit any mood.

Simply twist Pulse into any standard light socket, and adjust both lighting and sound from almost any Bluetooth enabled device, including your iPhone and iPad. Experience the soaring highs and the rich stereo sound of JBL combined with warm, dimmable lighting, without the fuss of speaker wires, power cords, or an independent remote control. Pulse disappears into the lighting fixtures you already own, so you can enjoy your favorite music and mood lighting, all while accessing an existing power source.

I love that it allows my lights to still dim, there are no wires or cords to attach and it playing my music in seconds!

This absolutely makes a great gift the music-loving Dad this Father's Day!

AwoX Bluetooth Light Bulbs

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

If you have a music lover on your Father's Day gift list this upcoming June, then I have a really unique and fun gift that any man is sure to love!! I know my husband is loving it!

This unique gift idea is AwoX smart bulbs! They are a lightbulb and speaker in one. They work with the AwoX Stream CONTROL app on iOS and Android smartphones and tablet devices.

Through the app, you can control proximity settings and stream music from your phone to the bulbs. This means the bulbs can be programmed to turn on/off as you enter/leave the room by recognizing the signal coming from your phone. You can also play your favorite playlists from Spotify, internet radio and your music library from anywhere in the vicinity.

There are three different light bulbs that we tried out (and LOVED!). They are so ingenious and I love that I can now listen to music anywhere I turn on my lights!!!

AwoX StriimLIGHT Bluetooth - Standard

These light bulbs are so simple to use, with crisp and clear sound anywhere you can plug in a light bulb. It plays all your favorite music right from your Bluetooth® MP3/music players, including computers and numerous types of smartphones and tablets

Plus, there is a remote control for light on/off, sound volume setup and mute

The bulb is a LED, 110-240v and fits standard E26 or E27 socket. The speaker is a 10 Watts, 200Hz-20KHz

We love using this Standard StriimLIGHTTM Bluetooth bulb in our 4-season porch so when we have friends over playing games, we can play music all night long! No one knows it also plays music so people always wonder where the music is coming from! I love that I don't have to take it out once we are done! It still functions as a light when not playing music!

· MSRP: $80

AwoX StriimLIGHTTM Bluetooth - Mini Color

This StriimLIGHT Bluetooth Mini Color has the same great features as the Standard bulb but it has added fun because it also has a rainbow of colors and it is smaller in size!

StriimLIGHT Bluetooth Color bulb in our garage

My husband has put this bulb in his garage and loves to hear music playing and fun colors changing while he is working on cars or other things in the garage each night! It has great sound and the music is played really clearly! He loves it!

· MSRP: $100

AwoX StriimLIGHT Bluetooth - Mini

The StriimLIGHT Bluetooth Mini has the same music capabilities as the other bulbs above but it easy to integrate with its small size and E14 socket. It is PERFECT for smaller fixtures!!

Check out these other features:

· Bulb: LED, 110-240v, fits standard E26 or E14 socket

· Speaker: 3 Watts, 200Hz-20KHz

· Includes remote control for volume and light

· MSRP: $60

These really are the coolest music players we have ever seen and we are loving showing them off to everyone who comes in our house! We are huge music players (I play music all day long!) but I hate always having to have a music player taking up space or having to carry it around with me from room to room. These AwoX speaker smart bulbs are perfect for double duty (lights and music!) and look great too!

Buy It: 

You can purchase AwoX smart bulbs at many online and local retailers or from the AwoX online shop.

"Go Green" This Spring with LED Light Bulbs from Batteries Plus Bulbs!

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

When we finally moved into our own house a couple months ago, one of the first things we wanted to do is "Go Green" and eco-friendly with many things around the house. We recently started a compost, will be installing a rain barrel soon, and have been focusing on recycling more!

Our latest "green" change has been swapping out the bulbs in our house with eco-friendly LED light bulbs from Batteries Plus Bulbs!

Over the past three years, each new generation of LED has become more efficient and less expensive. When the traditional A-shape LED bulbs came onto the scene a few years ago, single bulbs were in the $30 range, whereas now we’re looking at roughly only $7 a bulb!

Plus, many energy utility companies nationwide are incentivizing consumers to adopt LEDs by offering instant savings including $10 off a bulb, reducing bulb costs to as little as $1.99 (in select areas).

Batteries Plus Bulbs, the nation’s largest provider of batteries and light bulbs, have a great selection of LEDs to buy if you considering an eco-friendly lightbulb makeover! They offer a great selection of A-shape, recessed and decorative LED bulbs but we have started by replacing our A-shape 60W bulbs.

The A-shape (classic series) are a comparable swap for most standard 60W bulbs and comes in a variety of shades. This is the most common type of bulb found in table and floor lamps.

The A-shape bulbs illuminate 240 degrees Soft White, omnidirectional lighting. The Duracell Ultra LED bulbs we are using use only 8.5W to produce the same light as a 60 Watt, A19 incandescent. They are also designed and rated for use in enclosed fixtures.

So don't go another day wasting energy and money! Spring clean your light bulbs this Spring and replace them with LED bulbs from Batteries Plus Bulbs! Batteries Plus Bulbs is the nation’s largest and fastest-growing franchise for batteries, light bulbs, and related accessories and services like Device Repair!

Buy It: 

You can purchase LED Bulbs from your local Batteries Plus Bulbs store.
