When Thomas Edison invented the modern light bulb, he certainly had no idea that his invention would evolve to where it is today. LED bulbs can last for 30,000 hours or more before they need to be changed, and now we have “smart bulbs” that connect to your iPhone or Android and change colors with a tap or two. But the smartest smart bulb we’ve come across doesn’t connect to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or anything else. Instead, it’s the Sense Light by Saffron Lighting, a brilliant outdoor light that screws into any standard socket and senses the light levels around it, turning on automatically when the sun sets and off automatically each morning when the sun rises.
Here are some key details from the product page:
- Senses sunlight and automatically switches on when the sun goes down
- Perfect for porch/outdoor Lighting – you’ll never forget to turn them on again
- LED – 30,000 hour lifespan, save $30 a year on electricity per bulb vs. INCANDESCENT
- Cool to the touch
- Works with standard E27 light bulb base
