I don't know about you, but I am excited for the day that LED lights get to a reasonable price and a warmer more natural light. The benefits include higher efficiency than a CFL, longer life than a CFL and they are dimable.

The problem that I have right now is that the price is still high and the light produced has a cold and unnatural effect. After reading an article about a new LED light from Sharp, I feel like there is hope in the near future that I might start transitioning some of my lights to LED.

The product is being introduced in Japan for about $40 to $80 US dollars. The higher end lights will have a remote control for dimming and even adjusting the light color. There is talk of being able to group them so that you can control them as a set with one remote.

I love the idea, but I want to see them in action first. I also want a guarantee of 10 years or more to make me confident about spending $80 on a light bulb with remote control.
