Abstract
The light bulb device with functional features may include one or more features such as a dimmer function for the light source, an on/off function for the light source, a charger function for external devices using an USB port, an electrical outlet, a night light, etc. The light bulb thus converts the AC voltage in the conventional light socket to one or more usable voltages for electronic features therein or other electronic devices. One such feature is a dimmer function, another feature is one or more USB ports for charging or operating other devices such as video camera. Also, a Bluetooth connection may allow the device to act as a speaker or projector or a clock. A video monitoring feature may be included within the device that can be monitored via Bluetooth connection to a smart phone.
