Hello,

You know there are a new type of ledlamps that use filament like leds.
I came accross a youtube that explains a bit about these filament leds:

The maker also made a clock with it:

The filaments themselfes can be bought on ebay (as said in the youtube):

This might give some ideas on the use of the filament leds.

I was wondering how those work. You see them in the hardware stores and they look pretty cool.

Nice video but, unfortunately for this site, it seems to be violating Terms of Use. See 0:30 point - transformerless power supply.

 

Ok, here is the disclaimer:

The power supply in the video is for educational purposes only. Kids: Don't try this at home!

 

I cringe every time I hear someone say leds instead of saying the letters.
