love Europe in that special way only someone who’s lived exclusively in the United States for 25-odd years really can. Yet another fabulous reason to love Europe are these solar powered light trees, spotted last October in Vienna (as well as in Milan in November and December). Designed by Ross Lovegrove, each tree has 10 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
For centuries now, the Moon has complained&#8211;to deaf ears, until now&#8211;that it could be providing all the street light we need, most of the time. No need for gas or electric streetlights, no sir, not unless there were clouds and such. Finally, someone&#8217;s listened, and developed Lunar-Resonant Streetlights, which use LED lamps that adjust lighting [...]]]></description>

2000 Lumens. Check. 20 lithium batteries. Check. Battery life of 1.5 hours. Check. Pricetag of $7000. Check. if you need to shine a light equivalent to 130 &#34;normal&#34; flashlights, then the Surefire Beast II LED is for you. I&#8217;m trying to think of an application for this monster, and I&#8217;m failing. But I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Look out, because here come cops with flashlights that will make you hurl. Intelligent Optical Systems has created this weird flashlight that&#8217;s so bright it temporarily blinds you, and then it gets you all disoriented and dizzy.

Okay, so, the EVERLED LED replacements for fluorescent lights will last twice as long or so (10 years vs. 5-7 years), use 20% less power, and be build from less, shall we say, caustic materials. They&#8217;ll be $150, which is quite a bit more than the typical fluorescent light, and I&#8217;m in no mood to [...]]]></description>

Jasman Toys is releasing Halo 3 replica weapons so realistic they might get your kids arrested. They have lights, recoil, infrared sensors to register &#34;hits,&#34; and vents that open when the device &#34;overheats.&#34; I&#8217;m putting those in quotes because I&#8217;m assuming&#8211;assuming, mind you&#8211;that it&#8217;s all simply simulated. $119 for the Plasma Rifle and $79 for [...]]]></description>

As posted right here, Taiwan is allocating $7 million to convert 420,000 traffic lights to the LED standard. Not to be outdone, Seville (Spain) is planning to replace its halogen and incandescent traffic lights with LEDs. The price tag is estimated to be â‚¬2.3 million, but it will conserve 85% of the energy used now.

Damon Vander Lind, an MIT student, partnered with several of his schoolmates and created the pedal-powered propeller tricycle. The tricycle reaches 7 ft. and weighs about 1000 pounds. It made using aircraft-supply chromemoly tubing and old bike parts. The propeller was made from pink foam coated with fiberglass. Oh, and the propeller has LED lights [...]]]></description>
