Save the Incandescent Bulb

The federal government has plans to ban all incandescent light bulbs by 2028. That includes beautiful 40-60W bulbs like this. Demand that the Trump Administration block this tyranny and use the hashtag #LegalizeBulbs More to come soon!

What kind of light lights your home at night?

@bighealer_sarah For a salt lamp, you cant really go wrong with just getting the standard tiny incandescent bulbs but you can look for amber ones too if they sell tiny amber incandescents, I actually have not looked.

@Legalizebulbs Is there a kind you particularly like?

@bighealer_sarah You can put incandescents in those, I have one and it is beautiful!

@Legalizebulbs I would do more candles and lanterns but most of them are petroleum, too, and it is starting to get too hot for fire. But someone suggested salt lamps so I am going to get some of those for ambient light.

Why do old movies feel so nostalgic? A thread 🧵

What if food isn't your body's energy source? Melanin uses light to split water and generate electrical energy that powers your cells. The light you’re exposed to matters ☀️

Lol literally me #LegalizeBulbs #LegalizeLight #SavetheBulb #Incandescent

The importance of infrared light ☀️ Always love hanging out with @tristan__scott_ and learning about the importance of sunlight.

Have you made the switch? #LegalizeBulbs #LegalizeLight #SavetheBulb #Incandescent

@AlpacaAurelius Why kombucha? Kombucha is just fermented tea, are you against sauerkraut too?

stop taking fish oil stop taking creatine stop taking birth control stop drinking kombucha stop taking hair loss pills stop eating so many veggies stop eating seed oils stop taking multivitamins stop drinking tap water stop touching receipts stop using sunscreen stop wearing polyester return to nature

@kofiwest_gh Incandescent bulbs are the new bitcoin. Red incandescents are even better for evening.

@thelightdiet @grok I am just shitposting, you have clearly made a very important and cool product, particularly for those who live where incandescents are banned or for those who can afford to spend more on a better bulb.

@grok could you please refer back to my carefully researched responses to other people regarding the flicker on standard incandescent bulbs and how a cleanly driven LED (which Lumos is), can actually end up with less flicker/modulation depth than an incandescent running on AC power? Could you also please break down the difference in the lifetime of an incandescent versus Lumios (~1,000 vs. 25,000 hours), and therefore the approximate cost of replacements including actual dollar cost as well as time? Oh, and please don’t forget to include the extra cost spent on electricity for the wasted heat production. And anything else you find relevant. And no, these people can’t say that we don’t have the benefits of an incandescent, because you’ve seen our spectrum and you see how it is deeply enriched in deep red and near infrared wavelengths, those most essential for the effects sought after by biohackers and the wellness crowd. Spectra of Lumios Glow on daylight (2700K) and candle (1200K) modes, respectively. Ultra-high CRI (98+) on daylight mode. Effectively flicker-free. Very low blue, and massively infrared enriched. Yet still approximately 4x times more efficient than a 40W incandescent, correct? Trust me, I love incandescents. That’s why we spent years meticulously replicating the spectrum with light emitting diode, so that we could make incandescents great again and bring healthy light back to the people. Also please refer back to the discussion regarding whether LED light is simply inferior in and of itself, as some self proclaimed “experts“ were claiming to me, without any substance or basis whatsoever, referring to how phosphors can cause eye strain or other issues and so on. The phosphors are a part of our secret sauce, allowing for the significant smoothing of the blue Driver spectrum and the massive transformation to abroad, near-infrared abundant spectrum. Dr. Alexander Wunsch, M.D., Ph.D., the world’s leading expert in integrative photobiology, who spent nearly a decade campaigning the European commission against the banning of the incandescent bulb, a staunch critic of the mandate on LED lighting for over a decade, led the development of this project as our scientific advisor, and has come to the conclusion that this is now a superior light source, both due to its spectral quality, still a great degree of efficiency, and significant customizability. raoptics.com/lumios

In other words, all of the people who will say that LEDs are inferior just because “they are LEDs” are wrong. Yes, you’re all wrong. The Incandescent LED is the future of lighting. Lumios is here. raoptics.com/lumios

@BrianRoemmele Call me a luddite, but gas beats electric just like incandescent beats LED every time. Never met a serious cook that didn't agree.

Announcing LUMIOS, the world's first human-friendly LED. Powered by revolutionary Ra Incandescent LED technology, Lumios addresses the problems of conventional LED lighting. 1. excess blue light -> low / optimized blue light • Conventional LEDs emit excessive blue light, threatening the eyes, chronically overstimulating the hormonal & nervous systems, and disrupting sleep and cellular repair. • Lumios uses advanced LED chips and light conversion technology to smooth the spectrum, reducing unnatural blue spikes and offering a low-blue, hormonally neutral spectrum, which supports balance and rejuvenation. 2. near-infrared absence -> near-infrared enriched • Conventional LEDs completely lack the near-infrared wavelengths which are essential for eyes, skin, and cellular health. • Lumios utilizes advanced phosphor technology to emit significant quantities of near-infrared light, comparable to a traditional incandescent bulb, and more than any broadband visible LED ever made. 3. poor color rendering -> ultra-high color rendering • Conventional LEDs emit a deficient spectrum which causes people and objects to appear pale, dull, and lifeless. • Lumios’ broad spectrum offers the highest color rendering ever achieved with an LED — almost identical to a standard incandescent bulb — so you can experience people and objects in their true colors. Everything looks and feels better. 4. AC flicker -> flicker-free • Conventional LEDs utilize cheap circuitry which carries AC voltage onto the light source, causing a rapid sub-perceptible flicker which has been linked to migraine headaches and cognitive disturbance. • Lumios utilizes high-quality circuitry to remove AC flicker, allowing your brain and nervous system to relax — while allowing you to think clearly and perform your best. 5. excessive brightness -> multi-modal design • Standard LEDs are typically far too bright, optimized for maximum brightness and efficiency rather than visual comfort. • Lumios utilizes an advanced multi-modal design — compatible with standard light switches — providing you with optimal light for every space, setting, and time of day. Lumios unifies the biological benefits of the classic incandescent spectrum with the technological capabilities of LED technology, making it the most advanced light ever created. Experience a new light. Available now. raoptics.com/lumios
