Eternal LEDS announces their 4W LED Hydralux-4 LED bulb which they say lasts 35x as long as a traditional bulb while saving $157 over the life of the bulb. The base includes liquid cooling in place of more traditional metal or fan cooling. The resulting LED bulb is fully dimmable, can be used indoors or out – and is cool to the touch. Expect 8W, 12W and 16W versions by the end of 2009. Cost is $34.99 and includes a two year warranty.

But how bright is that? I wish traditional bulbs, cfls, and led would standardize and all publish lumens on all their bulbs.

“consumes 4W to provide the light equivalent of 25W incandescents with a lifetime of 35,000 hours.”
That is as close as you get … but I agree, it isn’t like optical metrology is an untapped science …

Ouch. 25w incandescent. I might as well set a flashlight on the table and point it at the ceiling….it would be about as bright. I wish they would make some bright (100W or more) led and cfl bulbs that fit in standard sockets and fixtures.
