Well let's say neon.

Microphone and lighting.

The lightbulb blew out.

What about neon?

Neon is super happy.

Well neon is completely satisfied.

Pretend you're unscrewing a lightbulb, like this.

And that's because neon is a little bit bigger.

Can you determine which light bulb

Maybe you can hang a red lantern on it.

After one minute the lamps should turn off

Today we don't need one million light bulbs to create a spherical display.

CA And so, that lit a light for the house? How many lights?

I think they are sacred neon pink sparkly amazing. (Laughter)

How hard is it to remove an electron from neon.

Sure, I put neon lights on mine.

Gosh, Butch has got himself a neon sign.

Oh, I hear you got a new neon sign, huh? Good for you.

So when the wires turn, the battery will connect to a different bulb.

Neon, or krypton, or argon or any of these noble gases.

But the ionization energy increases all the way to neon.

It's like being shrunk down and put inside of a neon sign.

Basically they were able to light a 60 watt light bulb at a distance of about two meters.

It's the most simple thing you can make a battery and a bulb, the bulb lights up.

Neon's a gas that lights up the sign for a pizza place, the coins that you pay with are copper, nickel and zinc.

Claudes started working on neon tubes which could be put to use as orbinary light bulbs.

Even though xenon really wants to keep his electrons he's a little bit more willing to give them away than neon is.

As a comparison, the incandescent light bulb only converts about 10 of its energy into light.

But if you give talks to kids, you know, one in 50 of them, some light bulb goes off, and they think,

And then you get to neon and then you add one more see, neon is a noble gas, it's completely happy then you add one more electron and you get to sodium.

So it turns out that those fuels and technologies exist, and this is an example of that this is a solar LED light bulb that we sell for a retail price of about 10 dollars in rural Haiti.

And now, one way goes from orange to yellow, but the other way goes from orange to...neon yellow.

The individual cells in a plasma display use a mixture of xenon and neon that is converted into a plasma using electrodes.

We just want to try and create that awareness because, sure, changing a light bulb isn't going to change the world, but that attitude, that awareness that leads you to change the light bulb or take your reusable coffee mug, that is what could change the world.

Neon in the upper atmosphere only consists of 20 parts per million by mass, which is about a tenth as abundant as in the Sun.

A glass bulb electron tube was used, similar to that held by Moseley in the photo at the top of this article.

Somehow buying a local lettuce, changing a light bulb, driving the speed limit, changing your tires regularly, doesn't seem sufficient in the face of climate crisis.

And it was very peculiar, because it was dark out, but she was back lit with florescent lighting, and she was very much onstage, and I couldn't figure out why she was doing it.

This first one, Internet Zero, up here this is a web server that has the cost and complexity of an RFlD tag about a dollar that can go in every light bulb and doorknob, and this is getting commercialized very quickly.

Candles are cozy and seem oh so natural. Yet, when measured by the light they generate, candles are almost 100 times less efficient than incandescent light bulbs, and more than 300 times less efficient than fluorescent lights.
