Light and USB Power Charging - both in one LED bulb.
February 20, 2017 
A while back on World News Now I showed a gadget that screwed into a lamp so you could add two charging ports. You took the bulb out added that charging gizmo and screwed the bulb into it. But at CES 2017 I discovered the PowerBulb. It's said to be the world's first LED light bulb with builtin dual USB ports that turns any lamp into a charging station. That's right you can charge your phone, tablet, e-reader, etc. right from this LED bulb. It features something the company calls MegaSmart Charging. That means the PowerBulb automatically senses and sends more power to the device with the lowest charge. A built in silicon jacket and heat dissipation vents never allow the PowerBulb to get hot to the touch. Also built into the bulb is a dedicated on/off button that lets you to turn the light off while continuing to charge your devices. It's 608 lumens, which is about equal to a 40 watt bulb. It's 2700K which gives off a warm light. I asked about a brighter version and they said that was coming later. Bulb life is estimated at 50,000 hours and it retails for under $40. Please note that this bulb is marked "NON-DIMMABLE".
