Best invention since the wheel! Wow! Incredible! You are probably the smartest person ever for creating it! Add a link to the etsy store, where you're selling those, I need like a 1,000.
Why would they be in luck? Did you read the article? Just because the efficiency floor is eliminated doesn’t mean production would or even could restart.
Looks like they were only (generally) outlawed for sale in 2023. Though some states were ahead of that.
They last a long time, though, and I imagine a lot of people are still using their existing bulbs. I can't imagine doing that in CA, where our electricity is expensive, but if you're paying 6c/kWh, I suppose, may as well?
We used to do that as children as well: a spiral cutted out of paper on top of a long skewer stuck into a potato. Felt like perpetual motion somehow.
It works if you put it on top of a radiator btw.
I quite like these more - mainly because they could be added onto a lamp that puts off heat, and be kind of a perpetual decoration with subtle motion.
I love your “dad turbine” design, and the flying wing has some magical quality to it.
Thank you so much for sharing!
