A Handy Base Station (HBS) which is capable of connecting through a base portion into a power socket (e.g., lamp socket). The HBS may have a plurality of functional modules capable of being detachably mounted in a housing. One of the functional modules may be a light emitter such as a light emitting diode (LED). Another rmodule may be a communication module which may communicate using a wire line or wirelessly using standard wireless communication protocols. Further disclosed is a combination unit which has the HBS located on a pole such as a utility pole with a landing pad for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to allow the UAV a recharging location between deliveries and to allow the HBS to guide the UAV on its flight.

A microelectromechanical light emitter component comprises an emitter layer structure of the microelectromechanical light emitter component and an inductive structure of the microelectromechanical light emitter component. The inductive structure of the microelectromechanical light emitter component is configured to generate current in the emitter layer structure by electromagnetic induction, such that the emitter layer structure emits light. The emitter layer structure is electrically insulated from the inductive structure.

The invention refers to a dimming cap for a lamp with two separate radiation sources and, in particular, for a two-filament incandescent lamp, which has a concave shape with a base surface from which a circumferential side wall extends at least to a height H.sub.0 above the base surface, wherein the dimming cap, in a cross section formed at a height H.sub.0 parallel to the base surface, has a width (w.sub.0) that is constant within a tolerance of 0.1 mm over a first longitudinal section of the dimming cap, and which decreases over a second longitudinal section extending from the first longitudinal section to a first end of the dimming cap, and the height of the sidewall corresponds within a tolerance of 0.1 mm over the first longitudinal section to the constant height H.sub.0, wherein it increases over the second longitudinal section, wherein the first longitudinal section is between 70% and 98% of the length of the dimming cap in the cross-section formed at the height H.sub.0. The invention further refers to a lamp with such a dimming cap.

A lighting circuit includes a controllable electronic device in series with a power terminal of a controller, wherein operation of a switch causes the controller to maintain the electronic device conductive, whereby the controller then remains powered; and wherein the controller responds to a subsequent operation of the switch to render the electronic device nonconductive, whereby the controller is then unpowered even when electrical power is received. The lighting circuit is suitable for use, e.g., in a portable or other battery powered light.

A filament for a light bulb includes a tube and a filament material within the tube, wherein the filament material is configured to be in a liquid state while the light bulb is in use.
