Incluminate - lighting backup

Incluminate™ provides backup room lighting in case of bulb failure. Simply fitting between the bulb and a standard socket, Incluminate detects bulb failure and automatically illuminates to provide a similar level of light in the room.
More on the product

It's intended to be especially useful for elderly or infirm people who may otherwise have to climb, dangerously, up onto a chair in darkness to reach a light fitting to change a bulb if it fails. Other householders will find Incluminate convenient for light fittings in awkward places to reach, such as above a stairwell.
More on the domestic market

There are also plenty of non-domestic applications, such as care homes, pubs, cafés, historic buildings, small shops and hotel rooms/guesthouses - anywhere where a bulb failure would cause significant inconvenience or safety risks.
More on the commercial market

Incluminate won a 2006 IKB Engineering Award (details) and is currently being developed further, along with investigation of the market. A British patent has been applied for.
