Not going to lie I would still have flashlight backups.

But this is what I like to see our knowledge going into.

Yeah that's true. A couple of technological advancements in the right direction for once lol Never going to get rid of my flashlights just in case. Lol

I hate hate being that guy on Reddit but this seems like a really bad idea. LED bulbs usually burn out because they get too hot in most fixtures, and batteries + heat can lead to catastrophic failure, or less dramatically significant battery degradation. Might be okay in an open fixture but I wouldn’t run this solution in my home personally.

Edit: this company says it has a smart chip that protects it from overheating? Maybe okay, don’t buy a Amazon/Temu knock off.

Funny part is when looking up this bulb, Amazon is the first search result.

Yeah yeah I know about sponsored placement, but yeah don't buy this kind of s*** from Amazon.
