TIME to catch up with Siegfried Rotthäuser, the German whizz whose Heatballs – they look just like incandescent lightbulbs (because they are – ed) but give off heat, too! – would cause a wow in your home.

Well, the news is not good, light fans. German customs will take hold of his 40,000 bulbs imported from China and smash them to smithereens.

Such bulbs are banned for use in the home. But – what’s this? – Commission Regulation (EC) No 245/2009 – says they can be used in industry.
