Abstract
A light bulb includes a bulb shell, a light source, a driver, a head housing and a bottom switch. The light source is enclosed by the bulb shell for emitting a light through the bulb shell. The driver converts an external power to a driving current supplied to the light source. The head housing has an Edison cap. The head housing is coupled to the bulb shell. The driver is enclosed by the head housing. The Edison cap is plugged to an Edison socket for receiving the external power source. The bottom switch is disposed on the bottom of the Edison cap for changing a setting of the driver.
