    In the era when kerosene lamps were the mainstay, wealthy landlords would buy a lot of candles, light candles in every corner of their homes at night, and then call a few good friends, eat snacks and drink wine to talk about life, ideals, and the great development of the country. Some poets will go to the tall buildings to admire the moon and drink alone. Students who are preparing for the entrance examination will stay up late to study.

    If you have more money, go to the Qinglou to shop.

    The most common function of the light bulb is lighting, which can bring light to the darkness and better see the road ahead at night, so who invented the light bulb?

    Who invented the light bulb?

    The light bulb, a source of light that emits light through electrical energy, was invented by Henri Goebbels. In 1854, Henri Goebel, a German watchmaker who immigrated to the United States, made the first practical electric lamp from a carbonized bamboo wire placed in a vacuum glass bottle, which lasted for 400 hours, but he did not apply for a patent in time.

    On October 21, 1879, the American scientist Thomas Alvar Edison used a centimeter-diameter carbonized cotton thread as a filament, and the luminosity it emitted was bright and stable, and it was illuminated by 4 candles, 1 hour, 2 hours? After more than 45 hours of hard work and thousands of experiments, the long-awaited electric light was finally born.

    What was the lighting in ancient times?

    Some would catch fireflies to illuminate their houses, and in ancient times, people lit fires for lighting.

    Candles, mainly made of paraffin, in ancient times, usually made of animal fat, can be burned to emit light, modern generally believe that candles originated from the primitive era of torches, primitive people applied fat or wax and other things to the bark or wood chips, bundled together, made into lighting torches. There is also a legend that in the pre-Qin and ancient times, someone tied mugwort and reeds into a bunch, and then dipped some grease and lit it for lighting, and later someone wrapped a hollow reed with cloth and poured beeswax into it to ignite.

    Before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the common name of lighting equipment was "candle". But this is not a candle, the candle was produced in the Western Han Dynasty and flourished in the Jin Dynasty, and the "candle" (traditional Chinese for "candle") in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period refers to the torch.

    During the Warring States period, there were oil lamps, a kind of lamp that burned animal fat, and the wick was burned in the grease for lighting, and this kind of grease was called "paste", and "blue paste" was to add spices to the grease.
