Thomas Alva Edison was the inventor of the electric bulb, ‘Edison one research make our life, future bright’ we can say’s that a man who change the darkness in the light. Before the Edison twenty-three type different type bulb had developed. The bulb itself is made of glass and contains a mixture of gases, usually argon and nitrogen, which increase the life of the filament.
