When an Energy-Efficient Light Bulb Dies
One of those energy-efficient light bulbs from Ikea just died. It had been in service for only 3 months. The bulb started flickering and then strobing and finally went off. I didn't notice when it went off all the way, but then I heard a click and smelled something. I immediately unplugged the lamp. I took out the light bulb. The base of it looks burned and it smells like fried electronics in here. Good thing it's warm outside - I had to open the windows to air the place out.Labels: technology
