McClure's Magazine, Vol. 6, No. 2, January, 1896 Of all the supports used I have found an ordinary incandescent lamp filament to be the best, principally because among conductors it can withstand the highest degrees of heat. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency The development of the modern incandescent lamp has increased the intensity of light available with a great decrease in cost, and this progressive development is shown easily by tables. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization In the center of the lantern is placed the incandescent lamp.

A Series of Lessons in Gnani Yoga In commercial apparatus, such as incandescent lamps, operated from ordinary systems of distribution, a much higher vacuum than obtained at present would not secure a very great advantage. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency As a consequence of simplicity of operation, the incandescent lamp was installed to a considerable extent, especially in the suburban districts. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization With a power of 25 kilogrammeters it furnishes a current of 40 volts and 7 amperes, which is more than sufficient to run two 50-candle incandescent lamps. Scientific American Supplement, No. 483, April 4, 1885 It should be mentioned that the car was lighted at night by two incandescent lamps, which absorbed 1.5 amperes each; and the brakes also were worked by the accumulators. Scientific American Supplement, No. 530, February 27, 1886 The building was lighted by more than four hundred incandescent lamps, arranged in such a manner that they formed part of the decorations.

History of Kershaw's Brigade In certain chemical industries no lamps are used excepting the incandescent lamp and this is enclosed in an air-tight glass globe. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization Each windlass is provided with five hundred feet of this cable, the extremity of which is attached to two lanterns each containing an incandescent lamp. Scientific American Supplement, No. 483, April 4, 1885 Results followed fast, and soon we had the incandescent lamp, trolley-car, electric pen and many other inventions. Little Journeys to the Homes of the Great - Volume 01 Little Journeys to the Homes of Good Men and Great In the midst the incandescent lamp that hung like the moon in heaven!... The Price of Love An instrument much less complicated and inexpensive and which will work well can be made thus: Take a 5-cp. incandescent lamp and break off the tip at the dotted line, as shown in Fig. The Boy Mechanic: Volume 1 700 Things for Boys to Do These are encouraging conclusions, considering the fact that the cost of light from incandescent lamps at the present time is only a small fraction of its cost at that time. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization In the Gerard incandescent lamp the carbons have the form of a V. They are obtained by agglomerating very finely powdered carbon, and passing it through a draw plate. Scientific American Supplement, No. 492, June 6, 1885 In order to designate incandescent lamps, circles would be used, and stars for arc lamps.

The Dominion of the Air; the story of aerial navigation It is true that in an electric-lighting system there is also a fall or loss of electrical pressure which occurs in overcoming the much greater resistance of the filament in an incandescent lamp. Edison, His Life and Inventions There was a look of hope on his face as the gleam from an incandescent lamp, far down the corridor, illuminated his countenance. Frank Roscoe's Secret Or, the Darewell Chums in the Woods Opposite the window was the door, and suspended from the centre of the ceiling was a single incandescent lamp. The Further Adventures of Jimmie Dale Countless incandescent lamps were glowing in all the colors of the rainbow. By Water to the Columbian Exposition These facts may be proved in a very evident manner, inasmuch as induced electric currents are generated by this after rotation, which may be made to light incandescent lamps. Scientific American Supplement, No. 447, July 26, 1884 "When the defendant company entered upon the manufacture of incandescent lamps in May, 1891, it well knew the consequences which must follow a favorable decision for the Edison Company in the New York case." Edison, His Life and Inventions His wonderful blue eyes, more luminous than his incandescent lamps, enabled me to read his thoughts. My Double Life The Memoirs of Sarah Bernhardt Among other places to which the batteries have been sent and put into work is Colchester, where the company has for some time had an installation at work, chiefly employing incandescent lamps. Scientific American Supplement, No. 433, April 19, 1884 The experimenter was able to control the brightness of each of the two colored lights which he was using by changing the position or the power of the incandescent lamps in the light- box. The Dancing Mouse A Study in Animal Behavior The motor is of such a size that when supplied with a continuous current of proper strength the induced electrical effect in the shunt circuit will light one incandescent lamp. Scientific American Supplement, No. 447, July 26, 1884 I was making some stuff to squirt into filaments for the incandescent lamp. Edison, His Life and Inventions We sat at a table formed for holding four at an open window, which, filled with exotics, overlooked Union Square, lighted by hundreds of incandescent lamps. Crowded Out! and Other Sketches It is impossible to conceive a more brilliant spectacle than this Rotunda when it is lighted at night by nearly fifteen-hundred incandescent lamps. America To-day, Observations and Reflections To locate grounds in the primary or high voltage side of the circuit, connect incandescent lamps in series by means of a long piece of lamp cord, as shown, in Figure 43a.

L is an incandescent lamp in the shunt circuit. Scientific American Supplement, No. 447, July 26, 1884 He was proud of his incandescent lamps, and was pleased to talk about them with anybody who would listen. Edison, His Life and Inventions The experiments and endeavors that brought this result constitute the story of the incandescent lamp. Steam, Steel and Electricity Overhead a circle of large incandescent lamps made the scene as bright as day. Snake and Sword A Novel The after-deck was lighted by scores of incandescent lamps, each shaded by a scarlet silken flower. The Turquoise Cup, and, the Desert With Two Electrodes.—A vacuum tube in its simplest form consists of a glass bulb like an incandescent lamp in which a wire filament and a metal plate are sealed as shown in Fig. The Radio Amateur's Hand Book An incandescent lamp is such a simple-appearing article—merely a filament sealed into a glass globe—that its intrinsic relation to the art of electric lighting is far from being apparent at sight. Edison, His Life and Inventions They were made of wood, lined with asbestos, and were lighted inside with an incandescent lamp. Steam, Steel and Electricity The water falling upon an art glass dome, beneath which are small incandescent lamps, returns to the basin and thence again to the pump. Marvels of Modern Science And by the way, Terence, come to think of it, you had better run forward and remove the sidelights; then unscrew all of the incandescent lamps on deck until the contact is lost. Cappy Ricks Retires The incandescent lamp travels about as fast as the prospector. The Silver Horde In the early days of work on the incandescent lamp, also, there was considerable trouble with mercury. Edison, His Life and Inventions Banked along the rails were the rarest of tropical plants; shaded incandescent lamps sent their glow from somewhere among the palms, and there was a suggestion of fairy-land in the scene. Castle Craneycrow His finger pressed alternately on a button on the handle and I could see that there flashed in the little mirror a minute incandescent lamp which seemed to have a special filament arrangement. The War Terror It would take over two hundred thousand men to light one of these incandescent lamps, two million or more to run a trolley- car. The Dream Doctor The ship was lighted throughout by incandescent lamps, and there was even a small automatic piano worked by the electric current, on which popular airs could be played. Five Thousand Miles Underground Or, the Mystery of the Centre of the Earth I had a series of vacuum-pumps worked by mercury and used for exhausting experimental incandescent lamps. Edison, His Life and Inventions He saw in the store room a box containing incandescent lamps, coils of silk-covered wire and other material that made his eyes glisten with delight. A Rock in the Baltic The girl was Ida Giles, and as Cora watched them she saw Sid hand Ida something that showed white in the gleam of an incandescent lamp. The Motor Girls Kennedy pointed to the incandescent lamp in the ceiling. The Dream Doctor The electric incandescent lamp is pure and healthy, since it neither burns nor pollutes the air. The Story of Electricity On this same floor is the vacuum-pump room with a glass-blowers' room adjoining, both of them historic by reason of the strenuous work done on incandescent lamps and X-ray tubes within their walls. Edison, His Life and Inventions Walden glanced at this great London literary light as indifferently as he would have glanced at an incandescent lamp in the street, or other mechanical luminary. God's Good Man “Bless my incandescent lamp! so he has,” agreed Mr. Damon. Tom Swift and His Electric Rifle; or, Daring Adventures in Elephant Land The incandescent lamp," he said, "is not always the mute electrical apparatus it is supposed to be. The Dream Doctor The parallel and three-wire systems in various groups, with or without accumulators as local reservoirs, are chiefly employed for incandescent lamps. The Story of Electricity Until October 21, 1879, there was nothing in existence resembling our modern incandescent lamp. Edison, His Life and Inventions It fairly glittered with the newly introduced incandescent lamp reflected in a perfect world of beveled and faceted mirrors.

The Age of Invention : a chronicle of mechanical conquest An electric light cane, with a little incandescent lamp and a battery hidden in it. The Dream Doctor There were also a number of sixteen-candle-power incandescent lamps, so that when passing through the shadow of a planet, or at night after their arrival on Jupiter, their car would be brightly illuminated. A journey in other worlds A romance of the future The Opera-House was one of the first to be lighted by the incandescent lamp, and the managers took great pleasure in showing me down through the labyrinth containing the wiring, dynamos, etc. Edison, His Life and Inventions The last few years have witnessed a remarkable advance in the manufacture of incandescent lamps in the substitution of metallic filaments for those of carbon. Edison, His Life and Inventions The inventive ingenuity of others brought in time better and more economical incandescent lamps. The Age of Invention : a chronicle of mechanical conquest It seemed to me that to one who could conceive of talking through an incandescent lamp seeing, even through steel and masonry, was not impossible. The Dream Doctor It was on the upper story of this laboratory that the most important experiments were executed, and where the incandescent lamp was born. Edison, His Life and Inventions Then there are the factories where these incandescent lamps are made, about forty in number, representing a total investment that may be approximated at $25,000,000. Edison, His Life and Inventions Before the incandescent lamp was perfected, the only illumination was from gasoline gas; and that was used later for incandescent-lamp glass-blowing, which was done in another small building on one side of the laboratory. Edison, His Life and Inventions It was there, too, that he began that wonderful series of experiments which gave to the world the incandescent lamp. The Age of Invention : a chronicle of mechanical conquest We stopped just long enough to run up to the laboratory and to secure a couple of little instruments which looked very much like small incandescent lamps in a box. The Dream Doctor It is simply impossible to imagine Edison working out the phonograph, telephone, and incandescent lamp under the tropical climes he sought. Edison, His Life and Inventions A great variety of methods for coating incandescent lamp filaments with silicon, titanium, chromium, osmium, boron, etc. Edison, His Life and Inventions The foundations were being laid for the remarkable chemical knowledge that later on grappled successfully with so many knotty problems in the realm of chemistry; notably with the incandescent lamp and the storage battery. Edison, His Life and Inventions Edison developed his own type of dynamo, the largest ever made up to that time, and, along with the Edison incandescent lamps, it was one of the wonders of the Paris Electrical Exposition of 1881. The Age of Invention : a chronicle of mechanical conquest Oddly enough, a few years later, some inventor actually took out a patent for making incandescent lamps with carbonized hair for filaments! Edison, His Life and Inventions Another important plant of this period deserves special mention, as it was the pioneer in the lighting of large spaces by incandescent lamps. Edison, His Life and Inventions A device for sealing together the inside part and bulb of an incandescent lamp mechanically. Edison, His Life and Inventions He saw the Edison dynamo, and he saw the incandescent lamp, "of which millions have been manufactured since that day without the great master being paid the tribute to his invention." Edison, His Life and Inventions The Jeannette was being fitted out, and Edison told De Long that he would make and present him with a small dynamo machine, some incandescent lamps, and an arc lamp. Edison, His Life and Inventions But out at Menlo Park there was the first actual electric-lighting central station, supplying distributed incandescent lamps and some electric motors by means of underground conductors imbedded in asphaltum and surrounded by a wooden box. Edison, His Life and Inventions In the month of May three of these machines, each with a capacity of twelve hundred incandescent lamps, were delivered at Pearl Street and assembled on the second floor. Edison, His Life and Inventions The work of Edison on incandescent lamps did not stop at this fundamental invention, but extended through more than eighteen years of a most intense portion of his busy life. Edison, His Life and Inventions It was capable of lighting twelve hundred incandescent lamps, and weighed with its engine twenty-seven tons, the armature alone weighing six tons. Edison, His Life and Inventions The idea of a complete system had been in his mind in broad outline for a long time, but did not crystallize into commercial form until the incandescent lamp was an accomplished fact. Edison, His Life and Inventions In this, which was a new and radical invention, we see the first step toward the modern incandescent lamp. Edison, His Life and Inventions This lamp, when put on the circuit, lighted up brightly to incandescence and maintained its integrity for over forty hours, and lo! the practical incandescent lamp was born. Edison, His Life and Inventions The voltage was increased to a higher pressure than usual, and all the incandescent lamps at Menlo Park did their best to win the approbation of the New York City fathers. Edison, His Life and Inventions During this period of arrested development, Edison was continuously working on the invention and commercial exploitation of the incandescent lamp.
