Siemens researchers have developed the world’s fastest LED stroboscopic lamp for the purposes of quality control.

I just think this is cool!

My son recently bought me a 9 LED pocket torch.  I hadn't realised LED's were so powerful these days!

I've got a tiny flashlight that came free with a 'Leatherman Fuse' tool.  It has only one LED and takes a single AAA battery, but is so bright it'll have your eye out if you're not careful.  Brilliant!

It can bring tears to the eyes too.

I bought my five-year-old nephew a 3KW lamp for Christmas.  He didn't quite know what to make of it at first, but when we switched it on you should have seen his little face light up.
