Jet engines are the inspiration for GE's new energy-saving light bulb. This stunning new technology was derived from the amount of over heating jet engines that do not have the proper cooling techniques similar to LED bulbs. LED bulbs are not as good as engines when it comes to staying cool, so scientists inserted a few jet engine cooling mechanisms inside LED bulbs. The outcome of this is a lightweight 1,500 lumen LED bulb that produces as much light as a 100 watt halogen bulb while using a third of the energy. GE's 1,500 lumen bulb is actually half the size and weight of the 600 lumen LED bulb available today. This new invention proves that technology is becoming more reliable and it is also taking away the number of jobs available to citizens.
