1882 'There is now on view in the vaults of the Royal Exchange a new electric light, the invention of M. Louis Clerc, which appears to have overcome many of the difficulties which have hitherto stood in the way of the general adoption of the electric light for household and other purposes. The principal of these objections, in the case of the incandescent lamps, is that the light must burn in vacuum, and in the case of the arc lights the frequent attention which they require. This new Sun light, it is claimed, combines in one lamp the advantages of both these lights, and at the same time is free from their drawbacks, for the light burns in the open air, and the carbons burn a longer time and can be more easily replaced than in the case of any arc light.'[1]
