LED Light Bulb: The Zetalux 2 by EarthLED
I’ve been testing the new Zeta-Lux 2 LED light bulb from EarthLED. This bulb looks similar to the first Zeta-Lux –but this bulb retails for $25 instead of $40. This means you can get a 40-watt equivalent LED bulb that consumes just 6 watts. The color temperature of the Zeta-Lux 2 is a pleasing 2800K. These bulbs are very durable and contains no mercury — they are RoHS compliant, UL Listed and FCC Approved.
At this price point, LED bulbs are a compelling alternative to compact fluorescent bulbs and incandescents. If you’re unconvinced about the advantages of LED lights. see our latest in-depth look at Efficient LED Light Bulbs For The Home.
The Zeta-Lux 2 bulb will be available for $15.99 on Earth Day form EarthLED.
EarthLED also plans to release a 7-watt Pro version of the bulb, which will be a 60-watt incandescent equivalent. The company is also introducing a dimmable LED flood the LumiSelect R20, and an outdoor water-resistant bulb.

How would you say these compare to the 5W LED bulbs I can already get for about $15 from Affinity Tech in Taiwan? http://www.affinity.com.tw/lede27_5w-2.html I’ve already been using a case of these in MR16 size with GU10 connection in a couple track light fixtures.
LED lighting is the lighting of the future. It’s efficient, thus very eco-friendly. So it’s great news that the price of them can be this cheap!
They should make this LED lighting mandatory for all bikes! Eco friendly helps everybody!
Hey Roel Are you family of me or what?
The key is the light output. What kind of light does the LED produce – spend $10 or $100 – if the kelvin temperature is not right you will not be happy with it in household applications. I just got back from a lighting trade show and hunted down the best lamp for household use. I found the Lemnis Pharox 300 is the best LED in the market.

After seeing good light and bad (honestly a lot of Chinese product) – I really think most will be happy that they checked into color temperature before buying a bulb.
