Round and curvacious just doesn’t cut it these days. Everythings got to be thin as do light bulbs. The new CeeLite Light Emitting Capacitor (LEC) panels have gone a little overboard on their diet, creating a flexible paper-thin light bulb, just one millimeter thick. As described on SciFi Tech, “the panels sandwich light-emitting phosphors between layers of electrodes. When an AC voltage is applied, the phosphors light up with a warm white glow, consuming less power than a neon or fluorescent bulb.” Many trendy spots are already incorporating them into the décor. The panels come in sizes as large as 3 x 6 feet, and can literally be hung like wall paper, although it would probably be one expensive wall since its not something you’d find at your local Home Depot.
