Lightbulb Doorknob- A Horribly Great Idea

The reactions around these here Internets today on this concept seems to be mixed. Some are saying worst idea ever, some are saying it’s genius. We here at Craziest Gadgets will remain boringly neutral. In theory, it’s a good idea- a doorknob that lights up so you can find your way in the dark without having to turn on the light. And the doorknob and lightbulb are similarly shaped.

But then practicality smacks you across the face. A thin hollow glass doorknob? A doorknob with electricity running through it that gets too hot to touch? And how is this going to be powered exactly anyway? Maybe this isn’t such a good idea after all. Designed by Jeong-Sun Park.
