14 to share similar experiences at changing light bulbs, and how said lightbulb could have been changed differently.

7 to caution about all the possible dangers of changing lightbulbs.

6 to argue over whether it is a "lightbulb" or a "light bulbâ€￾, and another 6 to condemn those 6 as being stupid.

2 industry pros to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp".

16 know it alls who claim they are in industry, and that light bulb is perfectly correct.

19 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs, and to please take this discussion to a light bulb forum.

11 to defend the posting to this forum, saying that we all use light bulbs ,therefore the post is indeed relevant to this forum.

36 to debate which method of changing lightbulbs is superior, where to buy these bulbs, what brand works best for this technique, and what brands are faulty.

5 posts to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the lightbulb controversy.

4 to say " didn't we go through this a short time ago?"'

13 to say " do a search on lightbulbs before posting a question on lightbulbs.

1 to bring politics into the discussion, by adding that the current minister for transport is not the brightest bulb.

4 more to get into personal attacks over their political views.

1 moderator to lock the light bulb thread.

1 forum lurker to post to the original thread 6 whole months from now ,and start it all over again.

That's to fugging good, but you left out religious viewpoint on lamps and ho's in general.

why don't you " do a search on lightbulbs before posting a question on lightbulbs" so

Watt...that is an oldie?
wow.gif
I even posted in that one.

Next time this 1 will do a search on "lamps" b-4 posting about lamps.

to assure I do not become a reposter again.
 
You forgot that 1 member who claims he has installed over 300 bulbs, lamps or whatever they are!

(GJoker @ Jul. 12 2007,08:01) Yeah... so... watts a lightbulb?

The invention of the incandescent light bulb has a history spanning from the early 1800s. Until that time, available light sources consisted of candles, oil lanterns, and gas lamps. In 1809, an English chemist, Humphrey Davy, started the journey to the invention of a practical incandescent light source. He used a high power battery to induce current between two charcoal strips. The current flowing through the two charcoal strips produced an intense incandescent light, creating the first arc lamp.

In 1820, Warren De la Rue made the first known attempt to produce an incandescent light bulb. He enclosed a platinum coil in an evacuated tube and passed an electric current through it. The design was based on the concept that the high melting point of platinum would allow it to operate at high temperatures and that the evacuated chamber would contain less gas particles to react with the platinum, improving its longevity. Although it was an efficient design, the cost of the platinum made it impractical for commercial use.

Throughout the 1800s, many scientists and inventors strove to create a cost effective, practical, long-life incandescent light bulb. The primary hurdle was creating a long-lived, high-temperature filament--the key to a practical incandescent light. Many high-melting-point materials were explored in inert/evacuated chambers in the process.

Men such as William Robert Grove, Frederik de Moleyns, W.E. Staite, John Daper, Edward G. Shepard, Heinrich Gobel, C. de Chagny, John T. Way, Alexander de Lodyguine, Joseph Wilson Swan, and Thomas A. Edison dedicated their time and efforts in the race to develop the first practical incandescent light bulb. Breakthroughs for Edison and Swan came in 1879, when they independently developed the first incandescent lamp that lasted a practical length of time -- at best a mere 13.5 hours. Their separate designs were based on a carbon fiber filament derived from cotton. The next stage of development focused on extending the practical life of the carbon filament bulb. Edison developed bamboo-derived filaments in 1880 that lasted up to 1200 hours.
