The safety of your loved ones should always come first that's why installing smoke alarms in your home is definitely encouraged. But what if instead of usual smoke alarms you'd get some Lum light bulbs for every room of the house? Besides acting as a dependable light source the Lum also moonlights as a smoke alarm so you get two products for the price of one. More importantly the actual light bulb continuously charges the battery of the smoke detector. All you have to do is turn on the light for the smoke alarm's battery to be recharged. In case there's any smoke, the alarm will perform as expected and it will also turn on the light so you know which way to go. The Lum is a great concept smoke alarm so we can't wait to see it in stores. Via Arthur Brault

In that case you'll need some sort of a light to illuminate those pages without waking up your better half, don't you? In that case we have an alternative to a bedside lamp for you, the Hang Book.
