The Everlasting Lightbulb: A Brief and Bright Explanation | Erudites' Espresso #32
Have you ever wondered how long a lightbulb can last? What if I told you there is a lightbulb that has been burning for over 120 years, and it’s still going strong? In this video, I’m going to tell you the amazing story of the centennial lightbulb, the world’s longest-lasting light bulb.
The centennial lightbulb is located at a fire station in Livermore, California, and it has been shining since 1901. It has survived several moves, power outages, earthquakes, and even a cord-cutting incident. It has been recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records, Ripley’s Believe It or Not, and General Electric as the longest-lasting bulb in history. It has its own website, fan club, and live cam, where you can watch it glow 24/7.
But how is it possible that this lightbulb never dies? What makes it so special? And what can we learn from it? Watch this video to find out the secrets of the centennial lightbulb, and why it might be the most reliable thing in the world.
