Sept. 4, 2010 National Herald: A Solar Light Bulb Went off in Katsaros' Head By Angelike Contis Maybe it was the visit to a solar farm or to the Thomas Edison and Henry Ford Winter Estates in Florida. Stephen Katsaros isn’t sure exactly what triggered his idea. But in January, he woke up and sketched out the plan for the world’s first solar light bulb. Things have been moving rapidly since – with interest for the bulb in 50 countries and a Chinese factory with a 600,000 per month production capacity.

July 10, 2010 Denver Post Cover Story: Power of light By Jason Blevins/Denver Post When he was 7, Stephen Katsaros took apart the box fan in his bedroom and reassembled it using a bigger, stronger motor. "It sounded like a B-52, but I was cool," says the Denver inventor. "I was always breaking stuff open and never really fixing it." Three decades later, the perpetual tinkerer snaps apart his latest invention: the world's first solar light bulb. In his spartan Capitol Hill office, Katsaros explains how Nokero, the affordable, durable, sun-fueled light, can help the 1.6 billion people worldwide without electricity and wean them from burning dangerous kerosene lamps...
