What challenges did thomas Edison face when he invented the light bulb?
Actually, Thomas Edison did not invent the light bulb, Michael Faraday did. However, the lightbulb used low voltage and a platinum wire. Edison wanted to bring electricity from a generator over wires into peoples' homes and have light bulbs work there. So Edison needed a lightbulb that would use a filament at high temperature and high voltage. Edison had to create the entire system: generator, wires, meters, fuses, and bulbs. Then he could sell light bulbs and electricity. He did not just invent one item, but the entire system.

Edison was rich but Tesla died in the red. also tesla was a inventor more of the thinking type but edison was a tinkering man.
