I have occasionally read that incandescent light bulb filaments undergo metal electromigration that eventually causes the filament metal to part company with itself and open, blowing out the bulb. Let ...

Signify, the company behind the Philips Hue line of lights, recently introduced new filament bulbs, which are designed to look like vintage filament-style light bulbs. These bulbs, which come in three ...

Mimicking Edison’s experimental setup, Eddy attached the light bulb to a 110-volt direct current electricity source. He allowed it to flow for 20 seconds, as bouts of heating longer than that can form ...
