Excerpt from Incandescent Electric Lights: With Particular Reference to the Edison Lamps The incandescent system was first represented by lamps made from an incandescent platinum wire, and the interesting experiments made in 1879 by M. de Changy, should be recollected, but the practical workings of this system were not satisfactory, principally because of the disaggregation and partial fusion of the wires, and in spite of the numerous improvements brought to bear on this system by Mr. Edison, who, by one of the most ingenious of processes, had rendered them more infusible and harder, still they had to be absolutely rejected - at least for ordinary lamps.
