Recycled products help to minimize the usage of virgin materials. We all should buy products that can be recycled. So, guys lets conserve energy and go green! I came to know this very interesting ecofriendly product which use LEDs . have a look:

The LED and the solar rechargeability are nice, but did anyone else notice that the thing is made almost entirely of plastic, which of course is a oil based product. I like the sentiment, but really think there are better ways to meet this ned.

I don't know if all plastic is bad though. I know that there are some that rail against plastics because many if not most of them come from oil based processes. Certainly, there are plastics made from non-oil products, but even then, the need for plastics in our society far outweighs the arguments to rid us of plastics.

I think the product above is very nice. I do wonder how it performs. There has been one knock against LED in comparison to other light sources and that is output and light quality. I would be interested to put this next to another desk light and see how it truly performs.

Just seems like a mass produced plastic light with LEDs. it really isn't a new device at all. It doesn't seem to have enough diodes to really put out too much light either. I like the sentiment, but the product falls short.

Here's my concern. The new 40 watt equivalent bulbs have large heat syncs on them right. At least that's what they look like. So indeed LEDs put off heat which makes sense considering even a CFL puts out some heat in the process. Now if these little LEDs in this light put off "no heat" then are they really going to put out enough light to "study'?

is it really saving energy. There are so many catch phrases in the eco-world and people seem to get them confused. it takes energy to recycle items and in some cases more than it took to make the original product. the benefit of recycling is in the reduction of materials usage, waste streams and pollution through such.

I don't know about this product, but I am sure its better than older products.

The website claims.

This study lamp is 'green' because it uses the LED

Sounds to me like the bar is set really low for being green. Can I put an LED on a Hummer and call it green. Its a narrow sighted claim.

Its a toy, lets move one and talk about what real "green" lighting options would be. What would they look like? How would the perform? What would be the light source and how much energy should the use?

Obviously this product is not the solution, but at least its a step in the right direction.

saving energy can certainly save earth. well, here is the good reason for it.

That's a pretty cool map. Is the plan to expand and include more and more of the world? I think it would be good if people could see where there are efforts being made.

The map gives a lot of info about DK only. Do you have world map with energy saving details? That would be great, thanks

Using energy wisely means being efficient. We use energy everyday at home, at school, at work, and even when you're playing. By saving energy you're helping to save the world's energy resources like gas, oil and water and you're also saving money on your utility bills. Best of all, by using energy wisely we can cut down on pollutants in the air and water, making a better environment for everyone.

I have become more eco-friendly lately and definitely wanted to find a way to not only save money on my electric bill every month, but also help in conserving energy. I found out that installing energy efficient windows is well worth the investment. This past month i installed Marvin by Infinity windows and I have seen an improvement on my electric bill. No longer do I have to run the air conditioner all day. Everyone in the house is cool and happy! Digiorgi was great in teaching me about these windows and the installing process. I definitely recommend them if your in the CT area .. www.digiorgiinc.com
