Philips Unveils $60 Light Bulb, Claims It Lasts 10+ Years [VIDEO]

A new light bulb is on the market that claims to last more than a decade.  The catch: the price tag.  The new super-long life LED bulb costs $60.  So, what does the typical consumer think?

FOX News Radio’s Jessica Rosenthal hit the streets to find out if consumers are really interested in the bulb:

Audio clip:

This Philips LED bulb can last 30,000 hours, and with a rebate, the $60 price gets cut almost in half.  This man says he’d buy it after some questions were answered:

(Consumer) “I’d like to know what products are in it to keep that.  Is there anything damaging to give that amount of power?”

Others say it’s a waste.

(Consumers) “If I sell the house, it goes with the house.//I can make a light bulb last for, like, at least a year and pay, I don’t know, $4.99?”

The people who said they would not buy it had some products they would like to see invented.

(Consumers) “A gadget that would let me know what women think.//Teleporting.  I prefer teleporting over a light bulb.  I’d probably go back to the medieval times.”

…Where no one would even ask her about a light bulb.
