Having a lamp is more or less an essential thing to own in any home, considering how sometimes harsh lighting could prove to be too hard on the eyes, and neither does it invoke that kind of romantic mood. A mood lamp would definitely come in handy to send those lovey dovey feelings down your spine, and with the $29.99 LED Jellyfish Mood Lamp, you will definitely have another winner in your proverbial book as it is not only highly affordable, but it will also be relaxing to watch at. Mesmerizing, even.

The LED Jellyfish Mood Lamp will feature dancing desktop jellies, where they float around and more or less hypnotize you, as you let the care and concerns of the world slip by you. The LED colors can be changed accordingly to suit your mood at that point in time. Half a dozen LEDs will help get the light show going on, and should you ever run into any issues of your jellies swimming properly, it is time to introduce just a few drops of liquid dish soap to the water, and you’re good to go – the entire thing would then run as a well oiled machine.

Perhaps taking inspiration from A Christmas Story, Redditor cit046286 has decorated her prosthetic leg by adding lights to it. She has used a prosthetic leg since her battle with bone cancer two years ago. She was diagnosed while she was deployed to Afghanistan.

Being the clever and creative person that she is, she stuffed lights inside the leg for a Christmas party. Now she has a super cool leg lamp. It’s a festive look, and it even comes in handy for more than just showing off – like when the power went out for 15 minutes during the party. Also it doesn’t look FRA-GEE-LAY.

I guess her leg can also double as a Festivus pole if she celebrates Festivus.

Before the invention of timepieces, our ancestors aligned their schedules with the rising and setting of the Sun. Mammoth hunting when the Sun goes up, then chill at Hairy Guy 34′s cave when the Sun goes down. Designer Jon Liow’s concept clock will let you partake in this ancient tradition of guesstimating with the Solar Light.

The Solar Light isn’t solar-powered. It gets its name from its function, which is to mimic the amount of sunlight in a particular timezone. By default, if it’s noon in your chosen timezone, the Solar Light will shine brightly, while its LEDs will probably be completely off at midnight. You’ll be able to select a timezone from a mobile app. You can also invert the light’s function (it’ll be brighter at night, darker during the day) and even turn it to a normal lamp from the app.

I think I’d love to have a Solar Light. It’s a nice way to imagine what your loved ones are doing if they’re abroad. It would be more useful though if it could also show you what the weather is like in that area.

There is just something about old school games that make us want to play and indulge in them from time to time. Those were the days when simple graphics and engrossing, and yet direct, gameplay could suck hours of our time with our imagination going into overdrive. Well, if you have a penchant for all things old school, or know someone who does, perhaps forking out some dough for the £24.99 Space Invaders Alien Lamp might just be the perfect gift.

The Space Invaders Alien Lamp will obviously arrive in the form of the retro and lone looking space invader, with the ability to change its color while it functions as a night light. Even better is, this is an officially licensed device by Taito, and best of all, you will not be shooting it down anytime soon as it will remain in a stationary position without shuffling horizontally in a relentless manner. This time around, it will bring light to your surroundings, instead of the expected death.

I personally don’t have a bedside lamp as my wife is the kind of person who likes to keep as much light out of the bedroom as possible. That means my usual pajamas completely covered in Christmas lights is not welcome in our bedroom, and neither is a lamp. But, if a lamp was welcome to my bedroom, I would certainly like it to use the power of my iPhone’s flash in order to illuminate whatever it is I need light for. (more…)
