Have no bulb? Get a heatball!

HighTech made in Germany:

http://heatball.de/

Heatballs are glass bulbs that mean to heat rooms inside buildings via eletricity. They are easy to install and get connected to the powergrid via standard E27 sockets, and have a power efficiency of 95% (class A). They are available in 75W and 100W versions and cost about as much as old light bulbs that the EU bureaucrats have decided to ban. Different to them, heatbulbs are perfectly legal in the EU. The only side-effect of heatbulbs is a positive one, that is that the remaining 5% of energy that are not used for heating, gets transformed into light, which makes them especially suitable in the both cold and dark long winter nights that are coming now. In energy-efficient, fully isolated passive heating houses, the introduction of energy saving bulbs has taken away a major supply of heat energy to the houses's temperature regulation, and the heatball is ideal to replace this lack by using it as a light source in the household. Price per piece is 1.69 Euros.

A heatball is an electric resistor that is used for heating. It is resisting against bureaucratic regulations and top-down orders that have been enforced against the will of the majority of people and outside democratic parliamentary legitimation processes (it got ordered by the EU central commitee, leaving national parliaments of member states no right by EU laws and EU treaties to object). It is absurd to assume that banning lightbulbs would save the planet's climate while at the same time we kill more and more of the global tropical forest reserves every year. A minimum of 13 million hectares (1 hectare=100x100m) gets cleared every year - that's almost 250,000 square meters per minute: (13 Mio x 100^2) / 365 days / 24 hours / 60 minute

Thus, 30 cents of the price for a heatball get transferred to forest preservation projects in the Amazonas region.
