You probably know that an incandescent light bulb uses a tungsten filament. What’s even cooler is that it’s got 20 inches of double-coiled filament — and tungsten is a brittle mineral that, under normal circumstances, can’t bend at all. How do they h
A classic 60 Watt incandescent bulb had a luminous flux of 720 lumens. A 58 Watt T8 fluorescent lamp has a luminous flux of 5000 lumens. That's almost 7 times more light than an incandescent bulb, with roughly the same power. The latest LED lighting fixtures from ETAP, such as the E...

General Electric gets its knack for invention from its founder,Thomas Edison, who invented both the incandescent light bulb and the electrical grid. The scripted GE letters in the logo date back to the 1890s, although they've been streamlined a bit over the years. ...
I figured I would try them. They were physically in good shape, with no corrosion or leakage. I had no time nor inclination to follow standard engineering protocol and measure the open-circuit, no-load voltage. I just popped them into a conventional incandescent-bulb flashlight (not a high-...
Incandescents have had an incredible run, but, regrettably, there’s no room for such energy-sucking lamps in the modern world. —Los Angeles Times Sayonara,energy suckers.We’re here to talkLED. Blue (Da Ba Dee) Why is everyonefreaking outabout blue LEDs? That LED bulb I just got is...
Thomas Edison’s first light bulb wasn’t at all efficient. One 1905 observer complained that “the incandescent lamp is an extremely poor vehicle for converting electric energy into light energy, since only about 4 percent of the energy supplied to the lamp is converted into light energy, the...
With all other lamps being incandescent, I now have a balance at 40mph, + 1 amp or so at 50mph. An Austin Seven owner who bought a pair of bulbs says... I'd been used to 6v austin lamps both of chummy and 1930 types. Let's just say I had to eat a lot of carrots. I...
Are car headlights getting brighter? Ask around, and you’ll find it’s a common grumble among anyone that drives, especially those that frequently take to the road first thing in the morning or at night. They’ll tell you that on an unlit road, ...
