A new version of a clever Smart Charge LED Rechargeable Light Bulb.

Shailendra Suman inventor.Here's a new version of a product I reported on about two years ago. It's the SmartCharge LED Bulb. This smart rechargeable light keeps the light on when power goes out. But it’s different from those lights that go on automatically when the power goes off. The SmartCharge Bulb, which looks like a normal light bulb from the outside, is designed to enable wall switch control of the light even when the power is off. If the power went out when you weren’t home those automatic lights that come during a power outage may have no battery power left by the time you get home. But with the built with proprietary ‘Grid & Switch Sensor technology’ and a rechargeable battery, the SmartCharge Bulb will light when you click the switch when you get home and find the power out. It can keep you in the light for about 4 hours when the rest of the neighborhood is left in the dark. The SmartCharge LED Bulb is capable of distinguishing between a loss of power due to opening of the line switch and a loss of power from a power grid failure (when the switch is either on or off.) The new SmartCharge LED Bulb 2.0 adds a couple of new features. It's almost twice as bright as the original which is 350 lumens. The new version is 650 lumens. But wait, there's more! You can now use 'Charge only mode' which means you can charge the battery without the bulb being lit. As of 2/10/16 you can preorder the SmartCharge LED Bulb 2.0 via the company website. It's on Indiegogo where right now they're priced at 4 bulbs for $75. They'll ship in May. Retail is expected to be $25 a bulb, so you actually get four bulbs for the price of three during the preorder. (I don't know when that will end.) You'll see me do a demo in the video below.
