Pulse LED bulbs with JBL speakers

When is a lightbulb not just a lightbulb? When it’s on display at the world’s largest electronics show.

Smart LED bulbs were everywhere at this year’s CES but one company believes that ightbulbs should do more than just generate light.

Sengled believes we should hide other ugly electronics in our lightbulbs, such as wifi boosters, security cameras and speakers.

The Pulse Solo is a pair of LED lights with JBL speakers embedded in them so you can turn it on and turn it up. Any Bluetooth audio device can play music from these cleverly concealed speakers.

The Sengled Boost bulb doubles as a wifi booster, which can be really handy for those with wifi blackout zones in the house.

The coolest item they showed called Snap had a camera, motions sensors and facial recognition built into a single light bulb.

Snap won’t be available until later this year, but the rest of the products are at http://Sengled.com.
