Expanded Information:

October 21, 1879, the American scientist Thomas Edison invented the electric light, that is, incandescent light, is a kind of through the energized electricity, the use of electrical resistance to the young fine wire heated to incandescent, used to light the lamp. Edison was the first inventor in the world to utilize the principle of mass production and his industrial research laboratory to produce an invention. Edison holds a cumulative total of more than 1,500 patents to his name and founded General Electric in 1892.

The electric light bulb, or electric bulb, whose exact technical name is incandescent, is a lamp that emits light through the passage of electricity, utilizing electrical resistance to heat a young, thin wire (usually tungsten in modern times) to incandescence. The outer shell of the bulb is made of glass, and the filament is kept under a vacuum, or low-pressure inert gas, which prevents the filament from oxidizing at high temperatures.

It is generally believed that the electric light was invented by Thomas Edison, an American. But if we look carefully, another American, Henry Goebbels (Heinrich G?bel), invented the same principle and material decades before Edison, and reliable electric light bulbs, and many other people contributed to the invention of the electric light before Edison.

In 1801, the British chemist David electrified a platinum wire to emit light. He also invented the electric candle in 1810, which was illuminated by an electric arc between two carbon rods, and in 1854, Henry Goebbels used a charred bamboo filament electrified under a vacuum in a glass jar. His invention is today recognized as the first incandescent lamp of practical use. The bulb he tested at the time lasted 400 hours, but he did not immediately patent the design.
