19世纪初，人们开始使用煤气灯（瓦斯灯），但是煤气靠管道供给，一但漏气或堵塞，非常容易出事，人们对于照明的改革，十分殷切。事实上，爱迪生为自己订定了一个不可能的任务：除了改良照明之外，还要创造一套供电的系统。他和伙伴们，不眠不休的做了1600多次耐热材料和600多种植物纤维的实验，才制造出第一个炭丝灯泡，可以一次燃烧45个钟头。后来他更在这基础上不断改良制造的方法，终于推出可以点燃1200小时的灯泡In the early 1900s. people started using gaslamps, which were supported by gas. Accidents would come quite easily as soon as the pipeline was blocked, so the enthusiasm for a new revolution of lighting was very high. In fact, Thomas Edison set up an immpossible mission himself that he would set up a power supply system, apart from the lighting improvement. With the cooperation of his coworkers, they invented the first carbon filament lamp by many experiments with more than 1,600 heat resisting and fibrous plant materials. which could last for 45 minutes. Finally, they invented the bulb which could light for more than 1,200 hours.
