Glow Brick
The Glow Brick has to be the next best thing to remote-controlled lighting. In fact, we’ll stick our neck out and say that it’s even better, because you don’t have to lift a finger to switch it on.
A strangely lovely phosphorescent light bulb is entombed in a clear acrylic brick, which lounges about by day, quietly soaking up solar energy, then takes centre stage by night.
At dusk, the light starts glowing all green and mysterious, showing an awesome staying power throughout the darkest hours. The overall effect is of a disembodied shining light bulb suspended in mid air, which, you’d have to agree, is not something you see every day.
On a functional level, it makes a handy, low-maintenance security light. On a frivolous level, it’s a jolly nice talking piece for people who like to talk in dark rooms.
You can have this for £19.95
