An LED bulb makes light from tiny crystals, with little heat, so it uses much less power and lasts years longer than an old glowing-wire bulb.

Who acts: LED bulb, bulb · What happens: make, use, last, glow · To what, where: light, tiny crystals, less power

This is a sentence of the lesson «Electricity at home: switches, plugs, fuses and alarms» of the technology course of Mova's primary school.

The tree: Mova annot: Rust (en) → Haiku 5.5 (medium, Batches API) patches; gates UD 2.18; agreed by treeagree rules (Stanza, Trankit, spaCy trf): R5-strong ×1, R7-rel-agree ×1. The frames are read from the tree by Mova's frames reader (prag) when this page is built, the lesson read in order, so a pronoun may be resolved from an earlier sentence.
