Hi there, was wondering whats the most future proof lightbulb you can get (not taking about fire which is the easiest source of light to create
)
Thinking a bit it seams that carboon arc lamp is the best one, although you need to replace carboon in it everyday, it seams since it uses carbon (which is found in batteries, pencils and everyday items) its the easiest to fix and maintain
Incondecent breaks and requires special machines and knowledge about working with glass to maintain and reseal so unless someone makes it or repairs it for you (which suprise, suprise is banned) you are out of luck (not sure why but never found any tutorial on how to make or even repair one at home)
Flurescent tubes could be maybe made at home (if you know how to make neon signs and have knowledge about working with glass), but again requires special machines, also not sure how to make/where to buy the white powder that converts UV to white light
same with all types of HID lamps (Mercury Vapor lamp will probably be the hardest to make, since getting raw material for it (mercury) is not possible since its banned and dangerous
and the more modern we go the hardest it seams is to make/maintain your lamps (making LED diodes at home is again very hard if not impossible)
I did hear somewhere that in Russia there were attempts to make repairable incondecent lights (so you would just replace the tungsten inside and somehow reseal)
Maybe there are some more lamp types that use electricity and are essentially future proof, so you can buy one today, and show it to your grandkids and be sure that no matter what they will be able to use it, even if they will not be able to buy new one
