but he said the surface of the sun.. so i think is real tempeture

has anyone been able to find a place to purchase these bulbs yet!? I saw one place but the bulb was in a projector made by panasonic it cost like $3000. and I did'nt see any way to purchase a replacement bulb:mad:

wow.

I want one!

I think the temperature inside the light is extremely hot, hence the plasma. It is very small, however, and I doubt they would be difficult to cool. They only run on 250 watts and most of the energy is converted to light, not heat. This is awesome, just wait for these puppies to go mainstream.
