Incluminate: Lighting backup: Brilliant

7th March 2007 by Simon

What a brilliant idea. A light bulb fitting with a light bulb built in, that switches on automatically when the main light bulb fails.

In their words …

Incluminate™ provides backup room lighting in case of bulb failure. Simply fitting between the bulb and a standard socket, Incluminate detects bulb failure and automatically illuminates to provide a similar level of light in the room.

It’s intended to be especially useful for elderly or infirm people who may otherwise have to climb, dangerously, up onto a chair in darkness to reach a light fitting to change a bulb if it fails. Other householders will find Incluminate convenient for light fittings in awkward places to reach, such as above a stairwell.

Thanks for the comment - much appreciated! At the moment the project’s going pretty slowly as other things (earning a living) have had to take precedence, but I should be able to find more time to keep developing it in due course.
