It may not habitually take three men to change a lightbulb, but it all the same, the HydraLamp by Balint Tamasi offers the convenience of a light source that will stay lit for more than six years.

Boasting the ability to keep shining for 50,000 hours, the [lighting fixture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tangent-lamp) is, in other words, able to last for five years and 255 days -- that is, if you fail to switch it off at any stage for that length of time. The elegant luminaire by Mangrove Creations takes the form of a pole, encasing tangled [strings of LED lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ilo-lamp). It's unclear how you would go about refreshing such a system anyway, should it gradually grow dim. But a [built-in cooling system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superwire) ensures that the HydraLamp by Balint Tamasi is extremely efficient, glowing like a 20W halogen light, while requiring just 4W to work.
