Still, cool concept. Who else has offers a hovering lamp?

I wonder what the light output is - how practical it is?]]>Oct 31st 2007 4:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/Oct 31st 2007 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/Oct 31st 2007 4:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/Oct 31st 2007 5:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/

You're wrong.

It's madly not practical, but it could be done. If these guys figured it out so far as to have that much power transfer in that manner, hats off to them.

I guess there is thin wire which you cannot see, so it seems that shade is levitating :)]]>Oct 31st 2007 9:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/
Even if it is levitating get ready to buy the Chinockoff™ version for 1/20th the cost, complete with thin fishing line for Magic-netic™ levitation. ]]>Oct 31st 2007 10:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/Nov 1st 2007 10:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/
Hot air would probably not float that stably

Magnets could be used for cars, but that would mean redoing all the roads in the country to be like the base of the lamp (assuming it is magnets)]]>Nov 15th 2007 12:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/Oct 31st 2007 11:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/31/crealev-builds-a-levitating-lamp/
can we get this into warehouses please?

make the complete floor with this - floating pallets would make things so much easier.]]>Nov 1st 2007 12:59AM
