thank you, your channel is amazing!! never stop doing these videos
ttt23467 I’m so glad you liked it. I have a planned series of around 60 videos which should keep me busy for a while.

you forgot that Edison was almost deaf . the story goes he was picked up by his ears while falling out a moving train , but in reality it was probably due scarlet fever that smoldered . we simply do not realize how lucky we are that these once common diseases are now in history , but these diseases could come back in an instant .. what a great series . i enjoy these now and i am ashamed to say learn so much . i wish i had these as a kid .
What about Edison and Swan Electric Light Company, and the fact that at the same time Edison developed the electric light in America Joseph Swan developed the electric light in England, and to cut a long story short, rather than compete they joined companies and became "Edison and Swan Electric Light Company". Joseph Swan was the first person to light an entire street with the "Electric Light" and I live only a couple of miles from the said street. Joseph Swan installed lights at Cragside House in Northumberland in 1878, then approx. a year later Swan installed lights at Mosley Street in Newcastle upon Tyne England and this was the first street in the world to have electric street lights.
Exactly. We used to sell Ediswan products in the family radio/TV/ electrical business. But Edison was American so the legend lives on.
@getcartercarpark. Not forgetting that the first house in the world to be lit by incandescent lamps was Swan's own house in Gateshead. The first electric light bulb factory in the world was in Benwell and Edison's General Electric company used Swan's filaments in their light bulbs.
Thank you once again for your insight...But...and there is always a but....Joseph Swan invented and made the first resistance based incandescant lamp....The row over patents resulted in the formation of Ediswan Electric Light Company. This was devised by Edison to cover up the fact that the incandescent light bulb was first patened by J. Swan.
Has Joseph Swann seen this video?
Dr Richard Feynman is a fun person to discuss. Excellent work Thanks.
In Germany the bulb 💡 is named by the pear : Glühbirne = glow-pear.
In Holland, Tulip, so its a Bulb too, some uberhaubt more German related people say peertje. peer = pear, tje is saying it a small pear.
East German people know Edison was fake guy, lol!
We love your informative videos, but as a kid in England I believed that Joseph Swan invented the light bulb . Then he had a court battle with Edison and they ended up forming a power company together called EDISWAN..
It is told.. maybe you did not listen
Your channel and your presentation is excellent and amazing. Thanks!
Kathy: thanks for enlightening us
So weird that this video showed up in my feed right now. I just woke up from a dream where the famous longest lit carbon filament bulb played a part. 😄
Thanks I love your videos. Capt. Warner Athey
👏👏👏👏👏👏👍thank you 🙏
ok...where is the nuclear age and the thoriated tungsten ???? can you say filament ?
At his time, evening light is most desired for people.
Please explain what electricity is.
The movement of charged particles, usually electrons as they are the lightest
Not to take anything away from Edison but my guess is that you probably know by now that he was not the first to crate a recording.
"Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville. The inventor of sound recording made the world's first recordings of airborne sounds in Paris between 1853/4 and 1860 on a machine he called a phonautograph."
Just thought to let you know!! Keep up the great work, I love your videos!! :)
The French machine was the first to record sound , but could not play back the sound . Edisons device was the first to both record and platback sound .
@@youme112233 Yes!! You are right!!!....Thanks for notifying it :)
She described the "phonautograph" in the video. It recorded the image of sound, but it could NOT reproduce sound.
I live in Ottawa Canada
What puzzles me about Edison , is that if he was so smart , why did he dismiss the brilliant iedas that Tesla was in to at the time when Tesla came to the United States , to work for Edison ? . It amazed me to read the stories fo Edisons engineers telling Teala : Oh , the boss does not deal with AC , ahem , we only deal with DC .
Smart? lower education, seeing that the mass needs this successor to steam! What he did was lower class, how he reacted to the Chicago fair, not a smart guy.
Edison, needing to dominate that market, failed. GE went to Tesla system too. His patents? improvements only.
@youme112233 Because Tesla was only a minor player.
Hello ma'am.. From which book does up read
I got this information from a lot of sources. However, if you want an overview, I suggest "Empires of Light" by Jill Jonnes. It is not perfect but is pretty good.
@@Kathy_Loves_Physics "Empire of light "is a video or something else I like ur videos please pay attention how I should improve my knowledge
@@mdzainulabdin4513 "Empire of Light" is a book. (Sorry, just noticed this question).
You did a great job except you've consistently misspelled "Humphry" in these videos.
pliiiiiiz add english subtitles
Sorry, am working on it, but am having trouble with it. Will try again. - Kathy
Many give Edison credit for perfecting the telephone as the "Bell Invention" would not be viable on its own.
And one could argue that Bell invented the phonograph record as Edison’s invention was not viable on its own either. Funny isn’t it?
With all the “Edison Hate” out there, I’m SO happy to see this! No man is perfect, but Edison is hardly the demon some make him out to be.
Yes, he was. He infringed man patents and the US Patent Office stripped him of most, if not all but one patent, in regard to the incandescent light bulb.
@@neiloflongbeck5705 What’s an Oatent Iffuce? 🙄
@@MultiPetercool you're lucky it was only 2 words, sentence now corrected.
Hmm, no mention of the inventor of the light bulb - Joseph Swan. Disappointing.
One of the diagrams at 7:24 did show other bulbs and underneath the leftmost one was "swan". I was glad to see she mentioned that other "light bulbs" did exist at the time albeit she didnt mention him by name.
@@stephenbailey6814 I noticed both those points.
Unfortunately, there are quite a few inventors given credit for something someone else invented. The other issue is also that the first one isn't necessarily the successful variant.
@@millomweb This is so true...as in the case of Marconi who invented nothing but had money and marketed anothers idea . Billy Gates...same worked in his fathers garage, bought code from high school students for little. And marketed what others had devised. There are many names not heard of who were responsible for so much. Finally Reginald Fessingdon..this man discovered the very first use of modulation of a radio carrier with audio. The radio carrier had previously been switch off and on using Sam Morses code. So now we had voice and music over radio waves...and we have never looked back (until the I phone ☺)
@@millomweb But Swan's lightbulb was the most successful. That's why the first lightbulb factory in the world was in Newcastle and why General Electric used Swan's filaments in their lightbulbs.
On July 24, 1874, Woodward and his partner, Mathew Evans, a hotel keeper, filed a Canadian patent application on an electric light bulb.[2][3] It was granted on August 3, 1874 as Canadian patent number 3,738.[4] Woodward was a medical student at the time. Their light bulb comprised a glass tube with a large piece of carbon connected to two wires. They filled the tube with inert nitrogen to get a longer burn life in the filament.[1] Their light bulb was fully effective and sufficiently promising; they sold their U.S. Patent 181,613 to Thomas Edison and due to this Edison is now known for the invention of the light bulb.
i went and searched up and they are still the owners of their electric licht
Lightbulb 1874
On July 24, 1874, Henry Woodward and Mathew Evans patented an electric lightbulb in Toronto, Ontario. It was made with a glass tube filled with a carbon filament and nitrogen gas. Unfortunately, the pair didn’t have the money to produce the lightbulbs commercially, and sold their patent to Thomas Edison in 1879.
